In a bag of apples there are 4 green apples and 2 red apples. Bethany takes a green apple out of the bag and does not replace it. She then takes another apple out of the bag. What is the probability that the second apple is red?

To find the probability that the second apple is red after Bethany takes a green apple out of the bag:

1. Initially, there are 4 green apples and 2 red apples, totaling 6 apples.
2. After taking one green apple out, there are now 3 green apples and 2 red apples left, making a total of 5 apples remaining.
3. The probability of the second apple being red is the number of red apples remaining divided by the total number of apples remaining:

[

P(text{red}) = frac{text{number of red apples}}{text{total apples remaining}} = frac{2}{5}

]

So, the answer is C 2/5.
