Answer:

2/121, 1/121

Explanation:

Problem 1:

We have the following letters in the bag:

P R O B A B I L I T Y

There is a total of 11 letters.

If we select B, we have a 2/11 chance to get it. If we then replace it and select A, we have a 1/11 chance to select it.

Thus we have a (2/11) * (1/11) chance to get that combination,

Which is 2/121.

Problem 2

P R O B A B I L I T Y

There is a total of 11 letters. If we select P, we have a 1/11 chance to get it. If we then replace it and select L, we have a 1/11 chance to select that.

Thus we have a (1/11) * (1/11) chance to get that combination,

Which is 1/121.
