If a marble is randomly chosen from a bag that contains exactly 8 red marbles, 6 blue marbles, and 6 white marbles. What is the probability that the first marble will NOT be white and the second will BE white?​

Answer:

Explanation:

so theres 8 red marbles, 6 blue marbles, and 6 white marbles so that makes

8 + 6 + 6 = 20 marbles in total

the probability of the marble being white is 6/20 or 3/10

so the probabilty of the marble NOT being white is 1 - (3/10) = 7/10
