Question

Base your answer to the question on the diagram shown below what is the probability of drawing a blue card , replacing it , and then drawing a blue card
3/5

6/25

9/25

Answer 1

Answer:    

The correct option is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given diagram :

Number of blue balls = 3

Number of red balls = 2

Total number of balls as given in the diagram = 2+ 3

                                                                             = 5

$\text{Probability of drawing a blue card = }\frac{3}{5}$

Now, The card is replaced and again a blue card is drawn

$\text{Probability of drawing a blue card again = }\frac{3}{5}$

$\text{Hence, Probability of drawing a blue card twice after replacing = }\frac{3}{5}\times \frac{3}{5}=\frac{9}{25}$

Therefore, The correct option is C.
