Final answer:
This question is about probability of selecting kittens with specific colors.
The correct answer would be:d) 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is asking about the probability of certain events occurring when selecting kittens with specific colors. To determine the probability that both kittens are tabby, multiply the probability of selecting a tabby for the first kitten with the probability of selecting a tabby for the second kitten.
To find the probability of selecting one kitten of each coloring, multiply the probability of selecting a tabby followed by a black kitten by the probability of selecting a black followed by a tabby kitten. To find the probability of choosing a tabby as the second kitten, after selecting a black kitten as the first, divide the number of tabby kittens left by the number of kittens left.
To find the probability of choosing two kittens of the same color, multiply the probability of selecting a tabby kitten by the probability of selecting a second tabby kitten, and add it to the probability of selecting a black kitten multiplied by the probability of selecting a second black kitten.
