The letters G E O M E T R Y are written on a set of cards. You mix the cards thoroughly. Without looking, you draw one letter, replace it, then draw another.
Find each probability.
1. P(E,T) = (2/8)(1/8) = 1/32
----------------------------------
2. P(M,Y) = (1/8)(1/8) = 1/64
----------------------------------
