There are 15 marbles in a bag; 10 are blue, 4 are red and 1 is green. Marbles are drawn and NOT replaced 8 times, with the number of red marbles being recorded. What is the probability of getting exactly 3 red marbles? (Write as a percentage, correct to two decimals. eg: 12.34%)

Answer :

Answer: There is a 0.88% chance of pulling three red marbles in a row.

Step-by-step explanation:

First pull = 4/15 (26.67%)

second pull = 3/14 (21.43%)

Third pull = 2/13 (15.38%)

You need to multiply these three fractions to get the probability of pulling three reds in a row, doing that will get you 4/455 or 0.88%
