Complete question :

Aliyah is drawing a ball from one bag and a tile from another bag the first bag contains four green balls and four yellow balls the second bag contains tiles 1 through 5 search

What is the probability that she draws a green ball and a tile numbered with 4?

Answer:

1 / 10

Explanation:

Given:

Bag content :

Green balls = 4

Yellow balls = 4

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P(drawing a green ball) = 4 / 8 = 1/2

Total number of tiles = 5

P(drawing tile numbered 4) = (number of tiles numbered 4 / total number of tiles) = 1 / 5

P(drawing a green ball) * P(drawing tile numbered 4)

= 1 / 2 * 1 /5

= 1 / 10
