Answers
12 marbles total
3/12 times 3/12 if you are replacing it.
1/4 times 1/4 = 1/16
There are 6 possible outcomes.
1/6 to roll a three and
3/6 to roll an even number.
For both to happen you have 1/6 times 1/2
3/12 times 3/12 if you are replacing it.
1/4 times 1/4 = 1/16

Thank so so much
1/6 x 1/2 = 1/2
Typo 1/12
Total 12 marbles
First time blue prob is =3/12 which is 1/4
second time its been replaced so prob will again be 3/12=14
blue and blue
1/4*1/4=1/16
Hope it helps
