Caley has a bag that contains 9 blue marbles and 13 yellow marbles. She selects a marble at random, and then, without replacing the first one, selects another marble at random. What is the probability that Caley selects a blue marble and then a yellow marble? Round your answer to the nearest percent. P(blue and yellow) ≈ %

Verified Answer :

The answer would be 24%.

You need to multiply the probabilities of each of those circumstances occurring separately (9/22 for choosing a blue one and 13/22 for choosing a yellow one) in  order to find the probability of them happening in a row.

9/22 13/22 100% ~ 24%
