Twelve students have an equally likely chance of being selected in a drawing at school. Eight are 7th graders and four are 8th graders.

1) What is the probability that an 8th grader will be selected?
2) If TWO students are being chosen for the drawing, what is the probability that BOTH students are 8th graders?

1) 0.3 or 4/12
I’m not entirely sure about the second one but I’m sure someone else will be :)
