A teacher carries around a bag of marbles with 10 of each of the following colors: blue, white, and yellow. She asks students to draw one marble from the bag. Before they draw, they must state the probability of drawing a certain color. The first student says the probability of drawing a blue is 1 out of 3 because 10 out of 30 simplifies to 1:3. The student holds onto his blue marble. The next student says his probability of drawing yellow is 1:3. Evaluate his statement. It is incorrect and a common misconception about independent events. It is correct, however he should have clarified how he reduced the fraction. It is incorrect and a common misconception about dependent events. It is correct because a yellow marble has not been drawn.
It is incorrect and a common misconception about dependent events.
