Answer :
The probability that the first two checkers he pulls from the box will be 11/46.
What is probability?
It is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes, in other words, the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.
It is given that, in a game of checkers there are 12 red pieces and 12 black game pieces. Julio is setting up the board to begin playing.
Equal amounts of pieces mean that Julio has a 12/24 or 50% chance of getting a red on his initial pull (reduced)
However, there were only 11 reds left on the second draw (Julio pulled one out), therefore the odds of getting a second red were 11/23.
The probability that the first two checkers he pulls from the box at random will be two red checkers will be,
= 1/2 x 11/23
=11/46
Thus, the probability that the first two checkers he pulls from the box will be 11/46.

It is 12/24
You add all of the numbers, 12 and 12, to get 24. Then there are twelve red checkers so 12/24.
