74) A 12-piece chicken meal is ordered at a local KFC, but the family ordering has decided it will give the four chicken breasts included to a homeless person. What are the chances one of the remaining pieces is a drumstick?

1. ¹/₈
2. ¹/₁₀
3. ¹/₁₂
4. ¹/₁₆

Answer 1 is correct. You know four of the 12 are breasts. Removing these leaves you with eight pieces remaining. Assuming wings, thighs, and drumsticks are included, there is a one in eight chance for the remainder.
