<PRE><B>Question 778456</B>
in a bag of marbles there are 8 green marbles, 7 yellow marbles, and 9 red marbles. you select two marbles from the bag . find the probability of the following events
*p(picking a red then another red marble) without replacing = 9C2/24C2 = 0.1304
--------
*p(either picking a yellow marble or a green marble)= (8+7)/24 = 5/8
-------------
*p(picking a pink marble) = 0
