Answer:

3/50

Explanation:

3 g, 5 r, 2 o

3 + 5 + 2 = 10

Orange = 2 jelly beans

Probability of selecting an orange jelly bean: 2/10 or 1/5

If you put the jelly bean back in, there is still 10 jelly beans.

Green = 3 jelly beans

Probability of selecting a green jelly bean: 3/10

Multiply the probabilities:

1/5 x 3/10

= 3/50
