Question

Find the probability of the outcome

Answer 1

4/105

Explanation:

Total number of marbles: 2 + 4 + 1 + 8 = 15

Number of blue marbles: 4

First drawing:

p(blue marble) = 4/15

Now there are 14 marbles left.

Number of green marbles: 2

p(green marble) = 2/14 = 1/7

p(blue then green) = p(blue) * p(green) = 4/15 * 1/7 = 4/105

Answer: 4/105

Answer 2

Explanation:

Total marbles = 2 + 4 +1 + 8 = 15 marbles

Probability of blue marble = 4 / 15

Probability of green marble = 2 / 15
