Question

I need help ASAP!!

Maria is doing a probability experiment. She has a bag containing marbles of different colors. The probability of selecting each color of marble is given below.

Blue - 1/2
Green - 1/8
Red - 5/16
Yellow - 1/16

What is the probability that Maria randomly selects a green marble, replaces the marble, and then randomly selects a red marble?

Answer 1

For the Green, it will be 2/16
For the Red, it will still be 5/16, because the marble was replaced

if the marble was NOT replaced, then the fraction will be very different

hope this helps
