There are six marbles in a bag. There are green, and three are yellow. If you draw a marble, replace it, then draw another, then what is the probability of choosing two yellow marbles?

Explanation:

First off, the probability of choosing a yellow marble the first time would be 3 out of the 6 total marbles which simplifies to 1/3

Then you have to multiply this probability by the second chance of picking a yellow marble

1/3 * 1/3

1/9
