anonymous · Answer

my computer just crashed and posted it again sorry

anonymous · Answer

then i will write again 
$$\frac{7}{200}\times \frac{10}{199}$$

anonymous · Answer

um I did that and it came out as a decimal is there another way?

anonymous · Answer

you mean you want the answer as a fraction?  it is a probability so it has to be between 0 and 1, a decimal seems ok to me
