Question 811554
Jayeed is setting tables for a glass picnic. He has 5 different colors of plates and cups: 5 red, 5 blue, 5 green, 5 yellow and 5 purple. He places the plates and cups randomly on the tables. What is the probability that his place will have a green cup and a green plate?
--------
# of ways to succeed:: 5*5 = 25
# of possible pairs:: 25^2 = 625
------------
P(pair of greens) = 25/625 = 1/25
