Answer:

The anwer is 1/10

Explanation:

(Im assuming that you have been given a red #4 card, a red #6 card, a blue #8 card, a blue #5 card and a blue #7 card)

The probablity of drawing a red card is 2/5 before you draw a red card; after you draw a red card, the probablity of drawing another red card is 1/4 because their are 4 cards in all and only 1 of those cards is red. To find the proablity of both, we simply multiply 2/5 and 1/4, which equals 2/20, 2/20 can be reduced to 1/10, wich is how we got our answer.

hopes this helps :)
