Question 200169: if you have a bag with 7-red marbles and 6-green marbles and pull out two marbles what is the probability that they will both be red?
what would be the probability if you placed the first marble into the bag before drawing the second? Answer by vleith(2983) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! You start with 13 marbles; 7 red, 6 green
You pull out on marble. What is the probability of being red? 7/13
Now you have 12 marbles left; 6 red, 6 green
Pull out another marble. What is the probability of being red? 6/12
What is the probability of both being red? You can simplify it.
What if you put the original red one back before drawing a second time?
Both draws would have the same probability --> 7/13
So if you drew one marble, then put it back and drew a second time, the probability of both being red are
