Answer:

Option B. 3/7

Step-by-step explanation:

A deck of cards contains yellow cards = 3 and green cards = 5

So total numbers of cards = 3+5 = 8

Now one green card is drawn so numbers of cards left with us = 8-1 = 7

This is true only when this green card was not replaced.

Now the probability to draw second card with color yellow = yellow cards/Total numbers of cards = 3/7

So the answer is Option B. 3/7
