Answer:
20%
Step-by-step explanation:
With those changes, the fraction is multiplied by ...

That is, the value of the fraction is decreased by 20%.
Answer:
(b) 
Step-by-step explanation:
When two p and q events are independent then, by definition:
P (p and q) = P (p) * P (q)
Then, if q and r are independent events then:
P(q and r) = P(q)*P(r) = 1/4*1/5
P(q and r) = 1/20
P(q and r) = 0.05
In the question that is shown in the attached image, we have two separate urns. The amount of white balls that we take in the first urn does not affect the amount of white balls we could get in the second urn. This means that both events are independent.
In the first ballot box there are 9 balls, 3 white and 6 yellow.
Then the probability of obtaining a white ball from the first ballot box is:

In the second ballot box there are 10 balls, 7 white and 3 yellow.
Then the probability of obtaining a white ball from the second ballot box is:

We want to know the probability of obtaining a white ball in both urns. This is: P(
and
)
As the events are independent:
P(
and
) = P (
) * P (
)
P(
and
) = 
P(
and
) = 
Finally the correct option is (b) 
12 out of 18. This is because there is 6 red marbles and 18 of them all together. The question states the probability of the red marble NOT being chosen therefore you need to take away 6 from 18 leaving you with 12. I hope this made sense :)
