Total applications = 75
Apartments on north side of town = 4
Apartments on South side of town = 5

First  person has a 4/75 chance of getting a house in the north side
P(A) = 4/75

And second person has a 3/74 chance of getting a house in the north side
P(B) = 3/74

Probability that 2 qualified applicants will be selected for the north side of town =  P(A∩B) = P(A) x P(B) = (4 ÷ 75) x (3 ÷ 74) = 0.05333 x 0.04054 = 0.00216 

First  person has a 5/75 chance of getting a house in the south side 
P(A) = 5/75

And second person has a 4/74 chance of getting a house in the south side
P(B) = 4/74

Probability that 2 qualified applicants will be selected for the south side of town =  P(A∩B) = P(A) x P(B) = (5 ÷ 75) x (4 ÷ 74) = 0.06666 x 0.05405 = 0.00360

Find the probability on #4<br> Please
julia-pushkina [17]
The probability of drawing a 5 from card numbered 1 - 10 is 1/10 because only one card out of ten is numbered 5. 
The probability of rolling a 2 on the cube is 1/6 because there are 6 faces of the cube with 6 different numbers. The probability of picking a 5 and rolling a 2 together is 1/60 because
1/10 x 1/6 = 1/60. You multiply them together because there will be 60 combinations: 10 card possibilities and 6 cube possibilities. 
Hope this helps!
