Answer:

The probability of selecting both yellow is 5/22.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the number of yellow marbles = 6

Black marbles = 4

Purple marble = 2

Now find the total number of marbles in the jar.

Thus total marbles = Yellow marbles + Black marbles  + Purples marble

Now insert the values in the above formula.

Total marbles = 6 + 4 + 2

Total marbles = 12

The probability of 2 yellow marble:

= \frac{6}{12} \times \frac{5}{11} \\= \frac{5}{22}

Thus, the probability of selecting both yellow is 5/22.
