Answer:

From least likely to most likely

  1. Event 4
  2. Event 3
  3. Event 2
  4. Event 1

Explanation:

Event 1 : Choosing either a yellow or black marble from bag A
P(Event 1 ) = 1 because when you choose a marble from bag A, it must be one of the two colors

Event 2: yellow marble from Bag A
There are 9 yellow marbles and a total of 15 marbles
So P(Event 2 ) = 9/15 = 3/5 = 0.6


Event 3: black marble from bag B
There are 10 black marbles and a total of 20 marbles
P(Event 3 + 10/20 = 1/2 = 0.5

Event 4: green marble from bag B
There are no green marbles in bag B
P(Event 4) = 0

0 < 0.5 < 0.6 < 1
So the order of events from least likely to most likely is

Event 4
Event 3
Event 2
Event 1
