Question 38372: I have two bags of marbles. One bag has a green, yellow and blue marble. The other bag has a blue,yellow,white and red marble. What is the probability of picking a blue marble from both bags? Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since you must pick a blue from both bags to be "successful," you must multiply the individual probabilities...so
1/3 * 1/4 = 1/12, your answer.
