Answer:
1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
the prob that you will pick a blue marble would be 12/16, easy.
then the prob of picking a yellow marble after that would be 4/15 since one marble is already missing. multiply the numerator and denominator of each fraction. so 12 x 4 and 16 x 15 to get 48/240. then divide each by 48 to get 1/5.
To show equality with fractions both fractions should be converted to show their values with the same denominator then draw a picture of those fractions.
Remember that you can only compare fractions with the same denominator as is said with other operations dealing with fractions.
