Abag contains 3 red and 5 green sweets. tim takes a sweet at random and eats it. he then takes another sweet. what is the probability that tim takes 2 red sweets

The probability that Tim take 2 red Sweet without replacement is 0.0476

Given the Parameters :

Probability = Required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P(2 red sweets) = P(red) × P(red)

Since, selection is without replacement ;

P(2 red sweets) = 2/7 × 1/6 = 0.0476

Therefore, the probability of picking two red sweets is 0.0476
