We know the probability that one bead will be green is 6 0. However, we don't know the probability that the second will be green, given that the first was green, because we don't know how many beads are in the bag. Her answer assumes that the bag contains 0 beads so that after removing one green bead there are 9 beads left, 5 of which are green.
