Algebra.Com's Answer #311157 by ilana(307)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The first gummy bear you pick can be any color, so it can be any one of the 25. The probability of that is 25/25, or 1. The second then has to be one of the 4 others of that color. The probability of that is 4/24, or 1/6. So the probability is 1 * 1/6, or 1/6. \n" ); document.write( " |
