Question

4. Tisha has two bags of marbles like the ones

Answer 1

Answer:

0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Bag 1 :

Number of marbles = 6

Number of Blue marbles = 3

Bag 2:

Number of marbles = 4

Number of Blue marbles = 2

Recall :

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

For Bag 1:

P(blue) = Number of Blue marbles / total marbles

P(blue) = 3 / 6 = 1/ 2

For Bag 2:

P(blue) = Number of Blue marbles / total marbles

P(blue) = 2 / 4 = 1/ 2

Probability of a picking a blue marble from each bag :

1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4 = 0.25
