Labeling fruits as A1, O1, O2 for basket A and B1, M1 for basket B gives 6 equally likely outcomes. The sample space is {(A1, B1), (A1, M1), (O1, B1), (O1, M1), (O2, B1), (O2, M1)}. P(Apple, Banana) = 1/6.
There are two fruit baskets A and B. Basket A has one apple and two oranges. Basket B has one banana and one mango. You randomly pick one fruit from each basket. (i) Draw a tree diagram showing all possible pairs of fruits. (ii) List the sample space. (iii) What is the probability of picking one apple and one banana?
