Answer:

1/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total Number of M&M's = (4 + 1 + 3 + 2) = 10

Number of yellow M&M's = 3

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

First pick (choosing without replacement)

P(choosing a yellow M&M) = 3 / 10

Second pick :

P(choosing a yellow M&M) = 2 / 9

P(choosing 2 yellow M&M) = 3/10 * 2/9 = 6/90 = 1/15
