There are 10 marbles. What is the probability of drawing two yellow marbles if the first one is not placed back into the bag before the second draw?

1/10 for the first marble. For the second, there are 9 marbles left. 1/9 for that marble. But you want the probability for BOTH. So 1/10 times 1/9 = 1.1%
