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.


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?

There are 9 red and 6 blue marbles in a jar If you draw red marbles from the jar 7 times what is the experimental probability of drawing a red marble?

The answer is dependent on whether of not you replace the marbles in the jar. If you do, the probability of drawing a red marble is 9 in 15 or 60%, every time. If you do not replace the marbles, the probability of drawing a red marble is 2 in 8 or 25%.

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.
