Question

Please help with this conditional probability question.

Answer 1

Answer:

8/45

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Since the dice has six sides and only two numbers are less than three (2 and 1) that means there is a 4/6 (2/3) chance of them rolling any other number besides 2 and 1. Since in bag two it has the yellow dice.

2. In bag two there are a total of 15 beads (4 yellow and 11 blue) since we want to get the yellow bead that means there is a 4/15 chance of getting a yellow bead.

3. Finally to find the chance of rolling a number greater than 2 and picking a yellow bead you must multiply the numerators and denominators. 2(4) and 3(15) which in turn equals 8/45.
