Probability = number_of_white_marbles / total_number_of_marbles
= 10 / (4 + 6 + 4 + 10)
= 10 / 24
= 5/12
~= 0.42
3/6 * 3/5 = 6/30 or 1/5 so you have a 20% chance of pulling a white and then black marble.
3/6 or 1/2 or 50%
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 of drawing a white marble is .46
80% chance, Or 40/50
3/6 * 3/5 = 6/30 or 1/5 so you have a 20% chance of pulling a white and then black marble.
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.
3/6 or 1/2 or 50%
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 of drawing a white marble is .46
The probability of pulling a red or yellow marble out of a bag of 3 green 8 red 8 yellow and 3 black marbles is 16 out of 22, or about 0.73.
There are 8 marbles that aren't black, out of a total of 12 marbles, so the probability is 8/12 or 2/3.
80% chance, Or 40/50

Bag with 10 marbles: 3 orange, 5 black, 2 white.Rephrasing the question.If a marble is drawn from the bag, then returned to the bag, and a second marbleis drawn, what is the probability that the first marble turns out white and the secondmarble black ?The probability for a marble to come out white from the bag is:P(W) = 2/10 = 1/5The probability for a marble to come out black from the bag is:P(B) = 5/10 = 1/2The probability for a marble to come out white, put back in the bag and then take again a marble for a second time and turns out to be black is:P(B2|W1) = (1/5)∙(1/2) = 1/10 = 0.10 = 10 %
It is (4/8)*(6/8) = 3/8
