g A bag contains 9 w h i t e marbles, 7 y e l l o w marbles, and 8 g r e e n marbles. If two different marbles are drawn from the bag , what is the probability of drawing first a w h i t e marble and then a g r e e n marble?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 24 marbles in the bag.

So,

There are 17 marbles that are either white and green.

Therefore,

"the probability of drawing a white marble" is 9/24

=0.375 or approximately as 37.5%.

Probability of drawing first white marble from the bag.

Now,

"The probability of drawing a green marble" is 8/24

=0.333 or approximately as 33.3%.

Probability of drawing a green marble.
