Question

The number of chips of different colors in Amy's bag is shown below: 8 blue chips 9 pink chips 1 white chip Amy takes out a chip from the bag randomly without looking. She replaces the chip and then takes out another chip from the bag. What is the probability that Amy takes out a pink chip in both draws?

Answer 1

25% chance or 1/4

because there are 18 total chips 9 of them are pink so 9/18 or 1/2

but she picks twice so you square it so (1/2)^2 which equals 1/4
