You can put this solution on YOUR website! bag contains 1 green, 4 red, 5 yellow ballons. two ballons are selected at random. find the probablity of P(1 red and 1 yellow).
------------------
# of ways to get 1 red and 1 yellow: 4*5 = 20
---
Total # of pairs of balloon: 10C2 = 45
----
P(1red and 1 yellow) = 20/45 = 4/9
