The contidion lets to establish that the events are independent. Probability is the number of positive results / number of total events The probability of drawing the first red pen is 3/5. The probability of drawing the second red pen is 2/4 The combined propability is (3/5)*(2/4) = 6/20 = 3/10 = 0.30 Soooo sorry i was answering someone else
