Answer:

3/12 for red

4/12 for blue

Step-by-step explanation:

3 is red

5 is green

4 is blue

3 + 5 + 4 is 12 so it is out of 12 altogether

Answer:

1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability of the event occuring, we need to find the probabilites of taking a red paperclip and taking a blue paperclip and then multiply them together.

Red paperclip:

3/12 = 1/4

Blue paperclip:

4/12 = 1/3

Probability of event:

3/12 x 4/12 = 12/144 = 1/12

1/4 x 1/3 = 1/12
