Question 2 • AZ-Common Core Algebra II A

Seventy-five percent of the flowers in the arrangement are roses and the rest are tulips. Of the tulips, 50 percent are pink.To the nearest whole percent, what is the probability that a randomly chosen flower from the arrangement is a pink tulip?

Answer
A
13%
B
38%
C
50%
D
67%

Explanation

Since 75% of the flowers are roses, the remaining 25% are tulips. Half of those tulips are pink, so the probability of choosing a pink tulip is 25% × 50% = 12.5%. Rounded to the nearest whole percent, that is 13%, the choice “13%.”
