Answer:

Hey homie I had trouble with this one too, the answer is 3.67%

Explanation:

Basically this is a combination which means your looking for P(2 favorites) which is written as (2C2)(48C8)/(50C10).

This is using factorials so if you don't know those yet I would look it up but it's just simplified as 3.67%
