    3/20

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Red = 3

    Blue = 3

    Green = 4

    Total = 3+3+4 = 10

    Pr (red) = 3/10

    Pr blue) = 3/10

    Pr (green) = 4/10

    Where Pr = probability

    You either have a head or a tail when tossing a coin

    Probability of having head = 1/2

    Probability of having tail = 1/2

    The probability of the coin landing heads up and blue marble = Probability of head * Pr (blue)

    = 1/2 * 3/10

    the probability of the coin landing heads up and blue marble = 3/20
