Question 166307: Assume that two marbles are drawn without replacement from a box with 1 blue, 3 white, 2 green, and 2 red marbles. Find the probability that the second marble is white, given that the first marble is blue. Answer by Mathtut(3670) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! total possibles is 8 since the blue has been withdrawn(with no replacement) that drops the total possibles to 7 and there are 3 whites so the probability of pulling a white is 3/7.
