Sagot :

Answer:

0.06

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of marbles:

6 + 10 + 5 + 1 = 22 marbles

Probability of picking 1 red marble:

red marbles / total marbles

6/22

Probability of picking a green marble:

green marbles / total marbles

5/22

Now, multiply the probabilities:

6/22 • 5/22 = 15/242 = 0.06
