88. Referring to the figure, Mrs. Hawkins took four slips of paper

and wrote a different student's name on each. Two of the names were
boys and two girls. She put the four slips of paper in a bag and said
she is going to draw two slips out. She then drew the tree diagram
to show the different outcomes that are possible. "B" represents a
boy's name and "G" represents a girl's name. What is the theoretical
probability that the teacher draws two names that are the same sex?
a. 1/6 c. 1/3
b. 2/3 d. 1/12

Answer:

a. 1/6

Explanation:

I just counted the 12 outcomes and the 2 same sex possibilities, which would turn to 2/12, and then simplified it into 1/6. I hope this is right, I am very sorry if it isn't.
