Answer:
7/18
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is the ratio of the number of possible outcomes to the number of total outcomes.
Given that there are 9 counters in a bag, 7 are green while 2 are blue.
the probability of picking at random a
Green counter = 7/9
Blue counter = 2/9
The probability that Ria takes one counter of each colour if 2 counter are picked as random is Green and Blue or Blue and Green
This is
=7/9 * 2/8 + 2/9 * 7/8
Recall that when a counter is picked the number of that ball available reduces and so does the total number of counter
=14/72 + 14/72
= 28/72
= 7/18
