A box contains 3 red marbles 6 blue marbles 12 green marbles and 4 purple marbles if a marble is drawn from the box what is the probability that it is red?
There are a total of 25 Marbles The chances are 3 out of 25 drawing a Red marble. 3/25 = 12% chance of drawing a red marble
There are 2 red marbles 3 yellow marbles and 5 blue marbles in a bag determine the probability of drawing a yellow marble from the bag?
3 in 10
A sack contains red and blue marbles the ratio of red marbles to blue marbles is 4 3 if there are 18 blue marbles in the sack how many red marbles are in the sack?
24 red marbles
If you have a bag containing 24 marbles If the probability of drawing a red marble is twice as likely not drawing a red marble how many red marbles are in the bag?
Suppose probability of drawing a red marble is p. Then p = 2*(1 - p) that is p = 2 - 2p or p = 2/3 So 2/3 of the 24 marbles are red 24*(2/3) = 16 red marbles.
If A bowl contains a total of 36 blue and red marbles There are twice as many red marbles as blue marbles How many blue marbles are in the bowl?
12
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.
A box contains 3 red marbles 6 blue marbles 12 green marbles and 4 purple marbles if a marble is drawn from the box what is the probability that it is red?
There are a total of 25 Marbles The chances are 3 out of 25 drawing a Red marble. 3/25 = 12% chance of drawing a red marble
A jar contains 8 red marbles 9 blue marbles and 6 green marbles Two marbles are picked at random What is the probability that one is green and one is blue?
Without replacement: P(one green and one blue) = P(drawing green then blue) + P(drawing blue then green) = (6/23)(9/22) + (9/23)(6/22) = 104/506 = 52/253 With replacement: P(one green and one blue) = P(green)*P(blue) = (6/23)(9/23) = 54/529
A bag contains 10 black marbles and 10 white marbles Five marbles are drawn and then replaced each time What is the probability of drawing five white marbles in a row?
It is (1/2)5 = 1/32
A bag contains 3 white marbles 7 green marbles and 5 yellow marbles What is the probability of drawing a yellow marble?
5/15 = 1/3 = 33 and 1/3 percent
A box contains 8 green marbles 4 red marbles and 4 purple marbles if you draw a marble at random what is the probability that you will not draw a red marble?
Probability of drawing a red marble = 4/16 = 1/4 Probability of drawing not a red marble = 1 - 1/4 = 3/4
A bag contains 6 red marbles 7 blue marbles and 6 green marbles If one marble is randomly picked from the bag what is the probability that this is a blue marble?
There would be a 7/19 or 36.84% chance of drawing a blue marble from the bag.
If you have a bag of 4 red and 4 green marbles what is the probability of drawing 2 marbles without replacement and getting 2 green marbles?
4/8 or 1/2(probability of first draw) * 3/8(probability of second draw which is 12/64 or 3/16 of the given scenario.
A bag contains 2 yellow 12 red and 6 green marbles What is the probability of selecting a red marble replacing it then selecting another red marble?
The probability of drawing two reds, with replacement, is the same as the probability of drawing a red, times itself. So: P(drawing two reds) = P(drawing a red)2 = (12/(2 + 12 + 6))2 = (12/20)2 = (3/5)2 = 9/25
