Answer:
≈ 0.19
Step-by-step explanation:
So first, we find the probability of getting 1 yellow marble (the formula is the number of amount of type over the total number of items), which is:
10/(6+10+5+1)
= 10/22
= 5/11.
So getting a yellow marble on the first try is 5/11 likeliness.
Now, for the second one, we do the same except that you are NOT putting it back into the bag, which means we have to subtract the yellow marble you already took AND ALSO ONE FROM THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF YELLOW MARBLES.
To find the probability of getting the second marble, our equation is:
9/(6+9+5+1)
= 9/21
= 3/7.
Lastly, to find the probability of getting them both consecutively, we multiply the two results.
5/11 * 3/7
= 15/77
≈ 0.19
I hope this helped! :D
