An urn contains 4 marbles with the following colors: Red, White, Blue, and Green. You cannot see into the urn and all the marbles have the same feel, so the selections are random. 1.If three marbles are picked out one at a time (without replacement), how many different permutations can there be? 2.If three marbles are picked out one at a time (without replacement), how many different combinations can there be? 3.If only one marble is picked, what is the probability that is it not Red?
