Probability Review

You arrive at a picnic and head to the cooler to get a cold soda.  In the cooler, there are 12 cans of Coke, 15 cans of Pepsi, 9 cans of orange Fanta, and 6 cans of Sprite all mixed together.  If you just reach in a grab the first can you find (so your hand won’t freeze in the ice), what is the probability of:

1.   Choosing a Sprite?

After the picnic, you go to the school carnival where you play Wheel of Prizes! 

9.  To win the biggest prize, you must land on a number greater than 7 twice in a row. (Note: it doesn’t have to be the same number both times).  What is the probability of winning the biggest prize?
