Question

A grab bag contains 7 football cards and 3 basketball cards. An experiment consists of taking one card out of the bag, replacing it, and then selecting another card. What is the probability of selecting a football card and then a basketball card? Express your answer as a decimal.

Answer 1

Hello!

The chance of getting a football card is 7 / 10
The chance of then getting a basketball card is 3 / 10

Multiply these two numbers

7/10 * 3 / 10 = 21/100

21/100 = 0.21

The answer is 0.21 or 21%

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

0.21 is the correct answer
