Question 974931: A teacher has 20 students in her class. They are divided into 4 table groups of 5 students each. The teacher places the name of each student in a bag. If she draws the name of a student from Table A on the first drawing then replaces it, what is the probability she will draw the name of another student from Table A on the second drawing?

Since she is replacing the name, the two events are independent. The probability of drawing a table A student on the second draw is exactly the same as the probability of drawing a table A student on the first draw.
