12-128.
A bag contains five green marbles and four white marbles. You pick three marbles, one at a time, without replacing them.
What is the probability of getting white, another white, and then green?
Remember that the marbles are not replaced, so the probabilities for drawing the next marbles are changed.
What is the probability of getting two white and a green in any order?
Use combinations.
How many ways can you draw two white marbles and one green marble? How many ways can you draw three marbles?
