A bag contains 6 red marbles, 4 blue marbles and 7 green marbles. If three marbles are drawn out of the bag, what is the probability, to the nearest 1000th, that all three marbles drawn will be red?

Sagot :

Answer:

20 marbles total...7 are green

Step-by-step explanation:

probability on first draw is 7/20...and since the marble was not replaced, the probability on the second draw is 6/19. And since they cant happen at the same time, we multiply

7/20 * 6/19 = 42/380 which reduces to 21/190
