Explanation / Answer

2) probability of getting an order that is not accurate. = (33+54+31+13)/(33+54+31+13+329+264+249+145)

= 0.1172

3)  probability of getting an order from McDonald’s or Wendy’s or an order that is not accurate. =

(33+54+31+13+329+249)/(33+54+31+13+329+264+249+145)

= 0.6342

4) P( At least one girl) = 7/8
