Both are indicators of the chemical composition of silicate minerals, magmas and rocks.

Mafic is used for silicate minerals, magmas and rocks that are composed of heavier elements, like magnesium, iron, calcium and sodium. They are dark and have high specific gravities.

<span>Opposite to the this, felsic silicate minerals, magmas and rocks in their composition have less from these heavy elements. They are composed from silicon, oxygen, aluminium and potassium, are light in color and have lower specific gravities.</span>

Probabilities are used to determine the chances of events

The probability that Jill selects a wooden pencil and then a mechanical pencil is 8%

<h3>How to calculate the probability</h3>

Represent the events as follows:

A represents mechanical pencil
B represents wooden pencil
C represents colored pencil

So, we have

P(A) = 20%

P(B) = 40%

P(C) = 30%

The probability that Jill selects a wooden pencil and then a mechanical pencil is then calculated as:

P(B n A) = P(B) * P(A)

This gives

P(B n A) = 40% * 20%

Evaluate the product

P(B n A) = 8%

Hence, the probability that Jill selects a wooden pencil and then a mechanical pencil is 8%
