\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The following is my thought process: So for the first slip of paper, the chance of getting a 5 would be 1/5. Since the slip of paper can be replaced, the chance of getting another 5 would still be 1/5. But since you only want one 5, would the answer be 1/10?

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B) = 1/5 + 1/5 - (1/5)(1/5) = 2/5 - 1/25 \n" ); document.write( "
