Answer:
12/27
Step-by-step explanation:
You have a bag that contains 6 red marbles and 3 blue marbles. You randomly choose one of the marbles. Without replacing the first marble, you choose a second marble. Find the probability of the events.
Let the total number of marbles = 6 red marble + 3 blue marbles = 9 marbles
You randomly choose one of the marbles. Without replacing the first marble, you choose a second marble. Find the probability of the events.
Assume all you picked is red( without replacement)
= 6/9 × 5/9
= 30/81
= 10/27
Assume all you picked is blue( without replacement)
= 3/9 × 2/9
= 6/81
= 2/27
The probability of the events is calculated as:
All red or All blue
= 10/27 + 2/27
= 12/27
