You can put this solution on YOUR website! n is an integer chosen at random from the set {2,5,6} and p another integer chosen at random from the set {6,9,10}. What is the probability that the two numbers n and p are even?
--------------
These selections are independent events.
P(even and even) = P(even)*P(even) = (2/3)(2/3) = 4/9
