Answer:

3/35.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability (the first one selected has the decoder ring) = 15/50 = 3/10.

Probability (the second one selected has the decoder ring) = 14/49 = 2/7.

Therefore the probability that both have the ring =

3/10 * 2/7

= 6/70

= 3/35.

Note: The probabilities are multiplied because the 2 events are independent.
