Calculating Total Balls
The bag contains 4 green balls and 5 black balls.
Probability of First Green Ball
The probability of drawing a green ball on the first draw is the number of green balls divided by the total number of balls.
Probability of Second Green Ball
Since the draw is without replacement, the number of green balls decreases to 3 and the total number of balls decreases to 8.
Calculating Total Probability
The probability that both balls are green is the product of these two probabilities:
Thus, the probability that both balls are green is 61.
