Answer

\( P(\text{Both blue, no return}) = \frac{10}{35} \cdot \frac{9}{34} \) \( \approx 0.075 \) \( \approx 7.5\% \)

Steps

Step 1 :\( P(\text{Green shape}) = \frac{16}{35} \) \( \approx 0.457 \) \( \approx 45.7\% \)

Step 2 :\( P(\text{Red circle}) = \frac{4}{35} \) \( \approx 0.114 \) \( \approx 11.4\% \)

Step 3 :\( P(\text{Blue or Red shape}) = \frac{13+6}{35} \) \( \approx 0.543 \) \( \approx 54.3\% \)

Step 4 :\( P(\text{Red or Triangle}) = \frac{6+12}{35} \) \( \approx 0.514 \) \( \approx 51.4\% \)

Step 5 :\( P(\text{Circle} | \text{Green}) = \frac{9}{16} \) \( \approx 0.562 \) \( \approx 56.2\% \)

Step 6 :\( P(\text{Blue circle, return, Blue triangle}) = \frac{10}{35} \cdot \frac{3}{35} \) \( \approx 0.008 \) \( \approx 0.8\% \)

Step 7 :\( P(\text{Both blue, no return}) = \frac{10}{35} \cdot \frac{9}{34} \) \( \approx 0.075 \) \( \approx 7.5\% \)
