Adioabiolaidn

The probability that the marbles selected are of the same colour is; 5/18

Probability of outcome

The probability that the marbles are the same colour includes:

  • The probability of 2 reds, 2 whites, 2 greens.

The total number of marbles = 9 marbles.

Since, the selection is without replacement;

The probability of selecting same colour marbles is;

  • {4/9×3/8} + {2/9×1/8} + {3/9×2/8}

The probability of selecting same colour marbles is therefore;

  • 12/72 + 2/72 + 6/72

  • = 5/18
