5 out of 10 marbles are bule If the first marble is blue and is not replaced, there are 9 marbles left with 4 blue marbles And therefore, the probability will be:
[tex] \frac{5}{10} [/tex] × [tex] \frac{4}{9} [/tex] =[tex] \frac{20}{90} [/tex] It can be simplified further: =[tex] \frac{2}{9} [/tex]
