A bag contains 1 white (W), 3 blue (B1, B2, B3), and 2 red (R1, R2) marbles.
Find the probability of tossing a head and drawing a red marble. Explain your reasoning.

Respuesta :

Using it's concept, there is a 0.1667 = 16.67% probability of tossing a head and drawing a red marble.

What is a probability?

A probability is given by the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this problem, we have that:

  • For the coin, one out of two outcomes are heads.
  • For the marble, two out of six marbles are red.

Hence the probability of tossing a head and drawing a red marble is:

[tex]\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{2}{6} = \frac{1}{6} = 0.1667[/tex]
