Answer:
Probability that one of the balls is red and the other is blue = 12/49
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of red balls in first container = 4
Number of green balls in first container = 3
Total number of balls in first container = 4 + 3 = 7
Number of blue balls in second container = 3
Number of green balls in second container = 4
Total number of balls in second container = 4 + 3 = 7
So, Probability of drawing a red ball first = 4/7
Also, Probability of drawing a blue ball in second draw = 3/7
Now, probability that one of the balls is red and the other is blue = 4/7 × 3/7
= 12/49
