8 i think 8 i think I guess it's 6.. and my point is that you have to try it through the worst sequence ever. starting with the red one (the one that is impossible for you to get another one, and will never reach the three same colored wanted) then start getting one of each of the two other colors each time, alternating, so it will take longer for you to have several of the same color: example: red > black > white > black > white > black (3 black ones)

or red > white > black > white > black > white (3 white ones) or (just to prove that alternate sequence isn't needed) white > black > black > red > white > (...)

(impossible to get any marble without getting the third of it's color, and by not getting the red one, this would have been impossible to reach, so to be SURE, you have to count this one in the first five, or it would come or not in the 5th position)

in this case, a longer sequence would have got the three equal-colored marbles some time ago. remembering, that this sequence is just to explain that 6 would do the job, and these balls would have been caught in a handful of marbles =) ps.:sorry for my poor English.

If you have 50 black marbles and 50 white marbles in a bag at most how many times would you have to draw out a marble to get two the same colour?

The maximum number of marbles you have to draw is three. 1) Draw a marble. It is either white or black. 2) Draw a second marble. If it is the same colour as the first marble, we are done after two draws. 3) Otherwise, the drawn marbles have different colours. Draw a third marble. No matter what you draw next, you must have two marbles of the same colour.

What is the equation used to determine probability?

Number of possibilities for one category / Total of all possibilities. For example, if I had a bag of marbles where there are three white marbles and two black marbles. The probability of pulling out a white marble is how many white marbles are in the bag which is: three. But the total of things you can draw out of the bag can either be one of the three white marbles or one of the two black marbles. 3 white marbles+ 2 Black marbles= five marbles. Possibility is 3/5 for drawing a white marble.


Suppose there are three white marbles and three black marbles in a bag and you want to remove two marbles What is the probability that you will select a white marble and then a black marble Express?
