To calculate this probability we must take into account that there is the same probability that any of the 3 urns is chosen.
 This probability is:
 P (U1) = P (U2) = P (U3) = 1/3
 Urn 1 contains 7 black and 3 red marbles
 Urn 2 contains 2 black and 8 marbles network
 Urn 3 contains 5 black marbles and 5 red marbles.

 The probability of obtaining a black marble in Urn 1 is 7/10.
 The probability of obtaining a black marble in Urn 2 is 2/10
 The probability of obtaining a black marble in Urn 3 is 5/10.

 Then we look for the probability of obtaining a black marble from urn 1 or a black marble from urn 2 or a black marble from urn 3. This is:
 P (U1yB) + P (U2yB) + P (U3yB)
 So:
 (1/3) * (7/10) + (1/3) * (2/10) + (1/3) * (5/10) = 0,2333 + 0,0667 + 0,1667 = 0, 4667.
 The probability that it is a black marble is 46.67%

What is a fraction pair that is equivalent to 2/15 and 4/9, and in which both fractions have a
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

  6/45 and 20/45

Step-by-step explanation:

The least common denominator is the least common multiple (LCM) of 9 and 15.

The factors of those numbers are ...

  9 = 3·3

  15 = 3·5

The LCM is the product of the unique factors to their highest powers:

  3·3·5 = 45

__

To make 2/15 have a denominator of 45, we need to multiply by 3/3:

  2/15·3/3 = 6/45

To make 4/9 have a denominator of 45, we need to multiply by 5/5:

  4/9·5/5 = 20/45

The desired fraction pair is 6/45 and 20/45.
