You have a bag of chocolate candy. Ten of them are red, 7 are brown, 12 are green, and 9 are blue. What is the probability that you pick a red candy, given that you have already picked a red candy and have not replaced it?

Respuesta :

It would be [tex]\frac{10}{38}[/tex], or, in simplest form, [tex]\frac{5}{19}[/tex].

You get this by adding all the marbles to find the total number of marbles. 10+7+12+9, which equals 38.

You have 10 red marbles out of 38 total, so that is represented by [tex]\frac{10}{38}[/tex]!

9/37  is the correct answer.
