12. A drawer contains 2 red socks, 6 white socks, and 4 blue socks. Without looking, you draw out a
sock, return it, and draw out a second sock. What
is the probability that the first sock is blue and the
second sock is red?

Probability that first sock is blue is 0.33 and Probability that second sock is red is 0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of red socks = 2

Number of white socks = 6

Number of blue socks = 4

Total socks in drawer = 2+6+4 = 12

The formula used to calculate probability is:

We are given you draw out a  sock, return it, and draw out a second sock.

We need to find the probability that the first sock is blue and the  second sock is red?

Using formula:

Probability that first sock is blue = 4/12 = 1/3 = 0.33

Probability that second sock is red = 2/12 = 1/6 = 0.16

So, Probability that first sock is blue is 0.33 and Probability that second sock is red is 0.16

because its not ur topic and its not for is for homework not that.
