Total number of marbles in the bag = 6 + 19 + 5 + 19 + 17 = 66Number of yellow ones = 19If drawing perfectly randomly, then the probability of pulling a yellow one = 19/66 = 28.8% (rounded)
The probability of selecting 4 red marbles or 5 blue marbles depends on how many marbles there are altogether, and how many of the total number of marbles are red and how many are blue.
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.
The probability is B*G/(B+G+R)^2where B = number of Blue marbles G = number of Green marbles and R = number of marbles of other colours.

it depends on the total number of marbles you have!

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.
The probability is B*G/(B+G+R)^2where B = number of Blue marbles G = number of Green marbles and R = number of marbles of other colours.
a black one
The probability of rolling a number greater than 4 is 2/6, that is, 1/3. For the probability of pulling out a red marble, more data has to be known. Just put the number of red marbles in the numerator, the total number of marbles in the denominator. Finally, multiply the two probabilities.
Number of cards in a deck = 52 Number of cards that are heart = 13 Therefore number of cards that are not heart = 52-13 = 39 Probability of not drawing a heart = 39/52 or 3/4
your ugly face
In order to determine the probability of drawing 2 hearts and then a spade, in that order, from a deck of 52 cards, start by considering the first card. The probability of drawing a heart is 1 in 4. Since you have now reduced the number of hearts and the number of cards in the deck by one, the probability of drawing another heart is 4 in 17. Since you have further reduced the number of cards by one, the probability of drawing a spade is 13 in 50. Multiply these probabilities together, (1/4) (4/17) (13/50), and you get about 0.0153, or about 153 in 10000.
! in 4, as the four suits have an equal number of cards.
