Answer:

The probability is not 4/12 for the red marble, but 4/11

Step-by-step explanation:

Francisco calculated to probability of drawing a yellow marble correctly, but since he isn't replacing it, the amount of marbles in the bag is not 12, but 11. Since there are 4 red marbles, the probability is 4/11
