A box contains 4 chocobars and 4 ice creams. Tom eats 3 of them, by randomly choosing. What is the probability of choosing 2 chocobars and 1 icecream?

1/7
5/7
2/4
5/8
Explanation:

Probability of choosing 1 chocobar = 4/8 = 1/2
After taking out 1 chocobar, the total number is 7.
Probability of choosing 2nd chocobar = 3/7
Probability of choosing 1 icecream out of a total of 6 = 4/6 = 2/3
So the final probability of choosing 2 chocobars and 1 icecream = 1/2 * 3/7 * 2/3 = 1/7
