Answer:


(3)/(14)

Hope this is right :)

Explanation:

Hopefully the question is asking probability.

There is a
(1)/(2) chance of wearing a blue shirt on Monday.

Then if you get a blue shirt on Monday, you have to wash that one.

There are now 3 blue shirts and 4 green shirts.

There is now a
(3)/(7) chance of getting a blue shirt.


(1)/(2) *(3)/(7) = (3)/(14)
