QuestionA jar has 6 red marbles (1-6) and 8 blue marbles (1-8). Find the probabilities for these scenarios:
a) If a blue marble is chosen, what's the chance it's numbered 3? b) If a marble with number 1 is chosen, what's the chance it's blue?

Studdy Solution
Plug in the value for the number of marbles with number1 to calculate the probability.
(MarbleisblueMarbleis1)=12(Marble\, is\, blue | Marble\, is\,1) = \frac{1}{2}So, the probability that a randomly chosen blue marble has the number3 on it is0.125, and the probability that a marble with the number1 on it is blue is0.5.
