Question 958996: A drawer contains 4 single red socks, 9 single white socks, and 2 single blue socks. Without looking, you draw out a sock, you replace it and draw out a second sock. What is the probability that the first sock and the second sock are both red?
Sorry for the bother, its just that im having a really hard time with probability right now.
