If there are:

6 red marbles
10 yellow marbles
5 green marbles
and 1 blue marble
What is the probability of picking 1 blue marble and 1 green marble?

(Once a marble is chosen it is NOT put back into the box).

(Write your answer in the form of a decimal, round to 2 places).

Answer:

0.02

Explanation:

either picking a green then blue;

5/22 x 1/21= 5/462

or picking a blue then green;

1/22 x 5/21= 5/462

total is 10/462 which is approximately 0.02

since there was no specific order in the question i assumed you add them both.
