Question

Clarissa has a bag of marbles. 9 are blue, 5 dre yellow, 2 dre purple, and 4 are green. What is the probability Clarissa reaches in the bag and pulls out a yellow marble, and then without replacing it, pulls out a marble that is not blue?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first lets the probability of just finding a yellow marble. There are 9+5+2+4 marbles in total, and that is 19 marbles.

5 out of those 20 are yellow, so the probabilty is 5/20 which is 1/4 or 20%

Then, lets do just finding the probability of a color that isn't blue.

Out of 20 marbles, 11 are color not blue, and 9 are.

So that probability is 11/20

Now, I think we need to do 11/20-5/20 so 6/20=3/10

Im so sorry, I might be wrong. I found both probabilities but I dont know if my final step is right.
