To determine the probability that exactly two of the five marbles are blue, we will use the rule of multiplication. 

Let event A = the event that the first marble drawn is blue; and let B = the event that the second marble drawn is blue. 
To start, it is given that there are 50 marbles, 20 of them are blue.  Therefore, P(A) = 20/50
After the first selection, there are 49 marbles left, 19 of them are blue. Therefore, P(A|B) = 19/49
Based on the rule of multiplication:P(A ∩ B) = P(A)*P(A|B)P(A ∩ B) =  (20/50) (19/49)P(A ∩ B) = 380/2450P(A ∩ B) = 38/245 or 15.51%

The probability that there will be two blue marbles among the five drawn marbles is 38/245 or 15.51%

We got the 15.51% by dividing 38 by 245. The quotient will be 0.1551. We then multiplied it by 100% resulting to 15.51%

What is the gcf of 48, 64 and 72
ziro4ka [17]

The greatest common factor is 8 because Prime factor is 2 and 4, Number 48 is 4 and 1 Number 64 is 6 and o Number 72 is 3 and 0 which it would all equal 2^3  so 48 = 2^4 times 3 64 = 2^6 and 72 = 2^3 times 3^2 Hope this helps.

Answer:
