Answer:

Red on the 5th draw = 0.0907

Step-by-step explanation:

The first to fourth selections are all the same.

Blue + white = 12 + 6 = 18

The total number of marbles is 11 + 12 + 6 = 29

P(~ red) for the first four times = (18/29)^4 = 0,1484

Now on the 5th time, the first red is 11/18

So the Probability is 0.1484 * 11/18 = 0.0907
