A bag contains 6 red marbles, 8 blue marbles and 4 green marbles. If two marbles are drawn out of the bag, what is the probability, to the

nearest 1000th, that both marbles drawn will be blue?
Please help if you can!!!

Answer:

0.111

The probability of two blue marbles being drawn from the bag to all marbles is
(2)/(18), and
(2)/(18)~-- > ~0.111 rounded to nearest thousandth.
