Question

PLEASE HELP ME!!! I ONLY HAVE 2 HOURS!!!

I am completing a color sheet for my math class. I have a set of markers with 2 purples, 1 black, 3 reds, 2 yellows, and 2 blues. What is the probability that I will randomly select a red marker, keep it, and then randomly select a yellow marker?

A. 47/90

B. 3/10

C. 1/15

D. 2/9

Answer 1

Is this for real? Lol anyways I’m guessing B

Answer 2

First, we have to add them all together to get the total amount of markers.

2 + 1 + 3 + 2 + 2 = 10

Red: 3/10

Yellow: 2/9

3/10 x 2/9 = 6/90

Simplify: 6/90 = 1/15

C. 1/15 would be your answer.

Hope this helps! Have a great day!
