Based on the above chart: What is the probability of selling a Blueberry donut?

probability of selling a Blueberry donut

P(blueberry donut) = (no. of blueberry donuts sold)/(total donuts sold)

= 3 / (5+2+9+3+5)

= 3/24

Answer 2

Calculation:

1. Total donuts sold = 5 (Chocolate Cream) + 2 (Strawberry) + 9 (Kale frosted) +                                    3 (Blueberry) + 5 (Cream filled surprise) = 24 donuts.

2. 
   

3. Probability for Blueberry = (Number of Blueberry donuts / Total donuts) ×                                                      100

4. 
                                               = (3 / 24) × 100 = 12.5%.

5. 
   

So, there's a 12.5% chance a customer will buy a Blueberry donut.
