Julio has a bag containing 7 red marbles, 8 blue marbles, 3 green marbles and 9 yellow marbles . He randomly draws 3 red marbles, 1 blue marble, and 2 yellow marbles from the bag. What is the probability that the next marble he draws is green?

Total marbles=7+8+3+9=27

so, the probability that the next marble he draws is green is 3/27

Hello There!

Find the total number of marbles:
7 + 8 + 3 + 9 = 27
Find the total after some marbles have been taken out:
3 + 1 + 2 = 6
27 - 6 = 21.
There are 3 green marbles left in the bag.
There are a total of 21 marbles in the bag.
The answer is 3/21.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)
