Question

In a bag, there are 4 red marbles, 2 yellow marbles, and 3 blue marble. After a marble is selected, it is replaced. What is the probability of selecting a blue marble then a yellow marble?

Answer 1

Since each marble is replaced after being selected, the probability 3/5. If it is out of the whole bag, then the probability is 3/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is specifically asking about the blue and yellow marbles in the bag. Since there are 2 yellow marbles and 3 blue marbles, the total is 5 marbles. This then makes it 3/5 (3 being the blue marbles).
