Two bags contain coloured cubes.

Bag 1 has 3 red cubes and 1 blue cube.

Bag 2 has 3 green cubes, 1 yellow cube, and 1 red cube.

Is the probability that you will get a red cube from Bag 1 and the yellow cube from Bag 2 more or less than the probability of getting the blue cube from Bag 1 and a green cube from Bag 2? Explain.

    equal

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Bag 1 has 3 red cubes and 1 blue cube. = 4 cubes

    Bag 2 has 3 green cubes, 1 yellow cube, and 1 red cube. = 5 cubes

    P (red bag 1) = red / total = 3/4

    P (yellow bag 2) = yellow / total = 1/5

    P (red bag1, yellow bag2) = 3/4 * 1/5 = 3/20

    P (blue bag 1) = blue / total = 1/4

    P (green bag 2) = green / total = 3/5

    P (blue bag1, green bag2) = 1/4 * 3/5 = 3/20

    The probabilities are equal
