Question 898660: You draw two slips of paper from a hat containing five slips, marked 1 through 5, with replacement. What is the probability that exactly one of the numbers is a five?
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? Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
