You randomly pull two bills, what is the probability that they are both $20?

Answer:

Depends on the pool you are pulling them from.

There are currently 11 different denomination accessible.

That would be 1 out of 11.

But considering that 4 of those bills are uncommon, the odds become 1 out of 7

Then to pull 2 of the same would mean you multiply 1/11 by 1/11 = 1/121

for the 1/7 it would become 1/49
