Question 561937: A stack of cards contains 7 hearts numbered 1 through 7, and 9 clubs numbered 1 through 9. If two cards are drawn at random with replacement, what is the probability of drawing a 2 of any suit on the first draw and the same card on the second draw? Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):

---
P(2 on 1st draw) = 2/16 = 1/8
--
P(2 on 2nd draw) = 2/16 = 1/8
----
P(2 on both draws) = (1/8)^2 = 1/64
