Selection without Replacement

Just like it sounds, in selection without replacement, you are picking something out of a bag (bucket, hat, any type of container, etc.) and, without putting it back, you pick out a second something.

This means that the total number of objects decreases each time you select without replacement.

Imagine that you have a basket of colored Easter eggs. You pick out one randomly and it's green. Then, without putting it back, you pick out another. This is an example of selection without replacement.

(Video) Probability Without Replacement

by Kevin Dorey

Kevin Dorey has a great video explaining probability without replacement. Here is a similar problem to try on your own once you've watched the video.

Summary\large{\text{Summary}}

We have a bowl of fruits, with 55 apples and 77 oranges. You decide to grab a piece of fruit and put it in your lunch box for later. It turns out that piece of fruit is an apple.

Now you grab another piece of fruit, to eat right now. What is the probability that this piece of fruit is an orange?

Examples: Selecting Without Replacement

Calculating the probability of certain events, we have to consider if we are selecting with or without replacement.

Say we start with a collection of things, selecting with replacement means that each time we take something out, we replace that item with the same thing (or put it back). Selecting without replacement means that each time we take something out, we don't replace it and leave the collection the way it is.

Let's see an example

A display of chocolate and raspberry croissants, taken one at a time without replacement

You pick a croissant at random. What is the probability of you getting a chocolate croissant?
