Question

what is the probability of picking a blue marble and spinning green?



Write your answer as a fraction or a whole number. With fractions, use a slash ( / ) to separate the numerator and denominator.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

When you draw the first marble, there are 10 marbles in the jar of which 6 are blue, so your probability of drawing a blue one is 6/10 (60 percent) or 3/5.

Answer 2

Answer: Therefore the required probability = P(A)P(B)

Independent Events: If one event has no effect on the likelihood of the other, they are considered independent occurrences. The mathematical formulation of the independence of events A and B is the probability of the occurrence of both A and B being equal to the product of the probabilities of A and B (i.e., P(A and B)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Given

Let the event corresponding to picking blue marble be = P(B) = p

Let the event corresponding to spinning green be = P(A) = q

Step 2: Find the probability

Since both events are independent of each other

Therefore the required probability = P(A)P(B) = pq
