Giorgio offers the person who purchases an 8 ounce bottle of Allure two free gifts, either an umbrella, a 1 ounce bottle of Midnight, a feminine shaving kit, a raincoat or a pair of rain boots. If you purchased Allure what is the probability you randomly selected an umbrella and a shaving kit in that order?

Question

The probability of selecting an umbrella first is 1/5, and the probability of then selecting a shaving kit is 1/4 (since one gift has already been selected). Therefore, the probability of selecting an umbrella and then a shaving kit is (1/5) x (1/4) = 0.05 or 5%.
