A bag contains 3 red marbles 5 blue marbles 8 yellow marbles and 4 black marbles what is the theoretical probability of randomly picking each color marble?

The theoretical probability of randomly picking each color marble is the number of color marbles you have for each color, divided by the total number of marbles. For example, the probability of selecting a red marble is 3/20.


If a box contains 4 red marbles seven white and 5 blue and two marbles are drawn one at a time with replacement What is the probability that both marbles are white?

Since the box contains 16 marbles, seven of them white, then the probability of drawing one white marble is 7/16. If you replace the marble and draw again, the probability of drawing another white marble is still 7/16. The net probability of drawing two white marbles, while replacing the first, is 49/256.

If a bag contains 4 black 6 green and 2 yellow marbles and one marble is randomly drawn what is the probability that it is not black?

There are 8 marbles that aren't black, out of a total of 12 marbles, so the probability is 8/12 or 2/3.


A bag contains 6 red marbles 4 blue marbles and 1 green marble What is the probability of choosing a marble that is not blue?

We will assume that the bag contains 11 marbles (this is not a trick question!), so 4 are blue and 7 are not blue, so the probability of a color other than blue is 7/11.


Suppose a jar contains 3 red marbles and 2 white marbles if a marble is drawn at random what is the probability it is red?
