Explanation:

The correct answer is C) 2/15.

To calculate the probability of choosing a blue and a red ball, we need to find the individual probabilities of selecting each color and then multiply them together.

The probability of choosing a blue ball is 2/10, since there are 2 blue balls out of a total of 10 balls.

The probability of choosing a red ball is 3/10, since there are 3 red balls out of a total of 10 balls.

To find the probability of both events happening (choosing a blue and a red ball), we multiply the individual probabilities together:

(2/10) * (3/10) = 6/100 = 3/50 = 2/15

So the probability of choosing a blue and a red ball is 2/15.
