Pizza Toppings


Penny's favourite pizza restaurant offers 6 toppings: ham, onions, mushrooms, pineapple, tomato and peppers. Penny ordered a pizza with ham and pineapple. Unfortunately the server only wrote down that she wanted 2 toppings but didn’t write down what they were. The cook decided to pick two toppings at random.



What is the probability that Penny will get the pizza she ordered?
Hint: Work out all the possible two topping options, a tree diagram or table will help you with this.
