Hello Graciela! I'm not certain whether the problem is referring to replacement or without replacement, so I provided you with both answers.
Replacement: Red: 14/35 Yellow: 11/35. Since both selections are independent, multiply the two probabilities and get a simplified chance of 22/175 or 12.57%
Without Replacement: Red: 14/35 Yellow: 11/34. Since both selections are independent, multiply the two probabilities and get a simplified chance of 11/85 or 12.94%.
