Question

A bag contains five red marbles, two orange marbles, one yellow marble, and two green marbles. Two marbles are drawn from the bag. What is the approximate probability of choosing an orange marble and a green marble? 0.02222 0.04444 0.08889 0.13333

Answer 1

No of red balls = 5

No of orange balls = 2

No of yellow balls = 1

No of green balls = 2

Therefore total no of balls = 10.

Now,

P(red) = 5/10 = 1/2

P(orange) = 2/10 = 1/5

P(yellow) = 1/10

P(green) = 2/10 = 1/5.

Acc to question,

probability of two balls drawn togetherly to be orange & green = 1/5 x 1/5 = 1/25 = 0.04 (Ans)
