Help to rephrase the question on probability
Hi native speakers,
Could you please help me to rephrase the following question
"There are 5 different color balls in a jar. What is the chance that in picking and replacing five balls, that two of them were either green or purple?" so that it means the combinations of GreenGreen & 3 other colors or PurplePurple & 3 other colors,
Thanks.
