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

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

Thank you Mr.Paul
