The TurDuckEn restaurant serves 8 entr´ees of turkey, 12 of duck, and 10 of chicken. If customers select from these entr´ees randomly, what is the probability that exactly two of the next four customers order turkey entr´ees?

The probability that exactly 2 of the next four customers order turkey entries is 6 * 0.0393359 = 0.2360

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 8+12+10 = 30 entries, 8 of them being turkey. Lets compute the probability that the first 2 customers order turkey entries and the remaining 2 do not.

For the first customer, he has 8 turkey entries out of 30, so the probability for him to pick a turkey entry is 8/30. For the second one there will be 29 entries left, 7 of them being turkey. So the probability that he picks a turkey entry is 7/29. The third one has 28 entries left, 6 of them which are turkey and 22 that are not. The probability that he picks a non turkey entry is 22/28. And for the last one, the probability that he picks a non turkey entry is 21/27. So the probability of this specific event is

8/30*7/29*22/28*21/27 = 0.0393359

Any other event based on a permutation of this event will have equal probability (we are just swapping the order of the numerators when we permute). The total number of permutations is 6, and since each permutation has equal probability, then the probability that exactly 2 of the next four customers order turkey entries is 6 * 0.0393359 = 0.2360

answer: its the third option.
