Answer 15

Uh lol this one made me laugh a bit, there's no green outcome so the event wouldn't happen.

Besides, even if you WERE to mix the yellow and blue marbles (not sure how it makes green, it's not light or a color), you do not know if it is mixing in a 3:4 ratio or a 1:1 ratio or a 1:\(n\) ratio. How do you know that 3 blues and 4 yellows make a green, why not 5 yellows xD.

Answer 16

If statistics and probability ran this way then I don't really know what to say xD
