There are 5 balls in a box, one red ball, one yellow ball, and three green balls. Assuming that the probability of each ball being drawn is equal, now randomly take a ball from the box. Please calculate (a) What is the expectation of the color of the ball? 2) What is the variance of the color of the ball?
