Question

There is a red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple card placed in a box. (six total, one of each color). You are asked to randomly choose a card, replace it in the box, and choose another card.

Find P(Yellow, then Blue)

Answer 1

Explanation:

If you are doing probability with replacement they will all be 1/6 each time.

total there is 6/6. If you draw a yellow card first it's 1/6 then replace it and draw a blue it is still 1/6. so you take those two probabilities and multiply them (1/6)*(1/6)=1/36 1*1=1 and 6*6=36.

Your answer is 1/36
