You can put this solution on YOUR website! A jar holds two color of marbles. The jar is composed of 60% black marbles and 40% red marbles. You select 6 marbles. What is the probability that you selected AT LEAST one of each color?
---
P(selected all black) = 0.6^6
P(selected all red) = 0.4^6
----
P(select at least one of each) = 1-[0.6^6+0.4^6] = 0.9492
