Multiple choice
  1. $\dfrac {3}{10}$
  2. $\dfrac {12}{35}$
  3. $\dfrac {23}{40}$
  4. $\dfrac {17}{35}$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Initial blue probability 1/5 = 8/(15+8+G), so 15+8+G = 40, G = 17. After removing 5 green marbles, green count is 12 and total is 35. Probability of green is 12/35.
