The probability of wining is

$p(\text{ winning)=}(1)/(30888)$

since Juanita and Michele make their selections independently, the events are independent, so we can write:

$p(\text{Juanita wins AND Michelle wins)}=p(\text{Juanita wins)}* p(\text{ Michelle wins)}$

which gives

$p(\text{Juanita wins AND Michelle wins)}=(1)/(30888)*(1)/(30888)$

By making the products, this yields,

$p(\text{Juanita wins AND Michelle wins)}=1.048143*10^(-9)$

and by rouding to the nearest hundread after the decimal point in this result, the probability is approximately:

$p(\text{Juanita wins AND Michelle wins)}=1.05*10^(-9)$
