Answer:
<em>The probability that the second ball is red is 71%</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Probabilities</u>
We know there are 5 red balls and 2 green balls. Let's analyze what can happen when two balls are drawn in sequence (no reposition).
The first ball can be red (R) or green (G). The probability that it's red is computed by
The probability is's green is computed by
If we have drawn a red ball, there are only 4 of them out of 6 in the urn, so the probability to draw a second red ball is
If we have drawn a green ball, there are still 5 red balls out of 6 in the urn, so the probability to draw a red ball now is
The total probability of the second ball being red is
The probability that the second ball is red is 71%
3 + 2 + 1 + 2 = 8, which is the amount of sweaters.
The probability of a brown sweater is 2 / 8 = 0.25
And the probability of a green sweater is 1 / 8 = 0.125.
Multiply the two probabilities together to get the probability of choosing brown then green:
0.25 * 0.125 = 0.03125.
To convert a decimal to fraction, you multiply the numerator and denominator, or in this case
Which can be simplified to:
