Sage Hurst · Answer 1

I believe it's 13%

Step-by-step explanation:

There is 10 total marbles

So the P (Yellow AND Green)

Yellow = 4/10

Green = 3/9 (because we had already chosen 1 yellow so now instead of 10 marbles there is 9 left)

Because it says the word 'AND' that means multiply these two fractions which = 2/15 which is 13.3% so I would choose 13%

This is assuming we dont put the yellow marble back first to grab the next marble
