What is a probalitlity for math?

A probability is saying something like, "What is the probability of getting a red marble if there are 20 red marbles in a bag and fifty blue marbles?" The answer would be 20/70 or 2/7 because there are seventy marbles in the bag but you only want those twenty.

What is the independent and dependent event for pulling two marbles out of a bag?

The first marble is the independent event because its probability is only based on the sample space of the bag. The second marble is the dependent event because its probability is based on the sample space of the bag which has now been changed by the first marble.


Bill has a bag of marbles If he knows that his bag contains 2 blue 3 red and 4 clear marbles what are the odds for Bill choosing a clear marble or a blue marble if he pulls one marble from the bag?

2/3rd is the answer This is a case of probability, the probability of getting only blue marble is 2/9 and only clear marble is 4/9, since we are looking for either of blue or clear, we will add the probabilities and upon adding these two it is 6/9 which translates into 2/3rd.
