Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Red = 6
Blue = 3
Green = 5
Total = 14
First marble = 6/14 = 3/7 You now have 5 reds and 13 total
Second Marble = 5 * 13 which brings you down to 4 red and 12 total.
Third Marble = 4/12 = 1/3
Result
P(3 Red) = 3/7 * 5/13 * 1/3 cancel the 3s
P(3 Red) = 1/7 * 5/13
P(3 Red) = 5/91
P(3 Red) = 0.0549 . Rounding to the nearest 1/100 depends on what you have been told about rounding. I would say the answer is 0.05 but your teacher may say something different.
To find probability, you'd have to find the total number of marbles (5+3+6+6=20), and since there are 3 blue marbles, the probability of picking one is 3 out of 20, or 3/20
If that blue marble isn't replaced, there will then be 19 marbles, and 2 blue ones. So the probability of him picking another blue marble is 2/19
