A bag contains 1 red, 2 blue, 4 orange, and 3 purple marbles. A marble is drawn and not replaced. Then another marble is drawn. What is P(purple, then purple)?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1/15

Step-by-step explanation:

probability = no of purple/total number * no of purple after the first/total after one is chosen

P = 3/10 *2/9 = 1/15

The probability that two purple marbles are picked from the bag that contains the marbles is 6.67%.

What is the probability?

Probability determines the chances that an event would happen. The probability the event occurs is 1 and the probability that the event does not occur is 0.

Probability of picking two purple marbles = (number of puprle marbles / total number of marbles) x ((number of puprle marbles - 1 / total number of marbles - 1)

(3/10 x 2/9) x 100 = 6.67%
