Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of marbles = 5 + 2 + 3 = 10
Probability of choosing 1 green marble = 2/10
Probability of choosing 1 yellow marble = 3/10
Notice (and this is important) that the denominator didn't change. Why?
Because you replaced the first marble into the bag. That word replacement is critical in a problem of this nature. There is the term non replacement which means that the second draw would have a denominator of 9.
So what is the probability of P(green then yellow)?
P(green then yellow) = 3/10 * 2/10 = 6/100
Answer: P(green then yellow) = 3/50 because 6 / 100 reduces.
