Question

Find the probability. Write answer as a reduced fraction using the forward slash (/).

You have 10 blue marbles, 8 red marbles, and 6 white marbles in a bag. You pick a red marble and put it back, pick a blue marble and put it back, and then pick a red or white marble.

Answer 1

Answer: depends on which probability you want (tell me and I’ll edit)

Explanation:

10 blue

8 red

6 white

24 total

Pick a red marble: 8/24 or 1/3

Pick a blue marble: 10/24 or 5/12

Pick red or white: 14/24 or 7/12

do you want to know the probability of doing all that (pick red, put back, pick blue, put back, then pick red or white)? Or just the probability of each outcome?
