you randomly highlight%28cross%28selvt%29%29 select an integer from 0 to 24 (inclusively) and then randomly
select an integer from 0 to 19 (inclusively). what is the probability of selecting a 3 both times
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The probability is 1%2F25  to select randomly first "a 3", and the probability is 1%2F20

to select randomly second "a 3".  Both events are independent.



So, the ANSWER to the problem's question is the product


    P = %281%2F25%29%2A%281%2F20%29 = 1%2F500.

Solved.
