What is the chance of two blue marbles being 7/17?

Since you have two blue marbles, this means it is without replacement (with replacement gives a different answer). To start off with, 7/17 are blue. With one less marble and one less blue, the chance for the second is 6/16, so multiplying these together, 7/17 * 6/16 = 21/136. Comment on David Severin’s post “Since you have two blue m…”

How do you solve for the difference in marbles?

We can also solve this as an inequality. You take the difference in marbles, which is 3, which means you need the difference in green and blue marbles to be greater than 3, or at least 4. You have b + g = 13 and g – b > 3, where b and g are positive integers.
