Two numbers are randomly selected on a number line numbered from 1 to 9. Match each scenario to its probability. Tiles the probability that both numbers are greater than 6 if the same number can be chosen twice the probability that both numbers are less than 7 if the same number can be chosen twice the probability that both numbers are odd numbers less than 6 if the same numbers cannot be chosen twice the probability that both numbers are even numbers if the same numbers cannot be chosen twice

Numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

probability that both numbers are greater than 6 if the same number can be chosen twice.
3² / 9² = 9/81 or 1/9

the probability that both numbers are less than 7 if the same number can be chosen twice
6
² / 9² = 36/81 or 4/9

the probability that both numbers are odd numbers less than 6 if the same numbers cannot be chosen twice
3/9 * 2/8 = 6/72 or 1/12

the probability that both numbers are even numbers if the same numbers cannot be chosen twice
4/9 * 3/9 = 12/81 or 4/27
