The probability of getting an S on the first draw and then a T on the second draw is 2/12 if the bowl contains 9 marbles with letters on them.

What is probability?

It is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes, in other words the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

Probability of getting letter an S:

P(S) = 3/9

Probability of getting letter an T:

P(T) = 2/8 (without replacement)

P(S, T) = (3/9)(2/8)

P(S, T) = 6/72 = 2/12

Thus, the probability of getting an S on the first draw and then a T on the second draw is 2/12 if the bowl contains 9 marbles with letters on them.
