Question

A box contains different colored paper clips. The probability of drawing two red paper clips from the box without replacement is 1/7 , and the probability of drawing one red paper clip is 2/5 . What is the probability of drawing a second red paper clip, given that the first paper clip is red?
2/35
1/6
2/3
5/14

Answer 1

2/5 * P(2nd red) = 1/7
P(2nd Red) = 1/7 * 5/2
P(2nd Red) = 5/14 or D
