What's the probability of drawing a yellow card the first time?
What's the probability of drawing a yellow card the second time (remember, you're replacing the card back into the deck)?

Is it 100?

anonymous · Answer

Yes. There is a 1/10 chance of getting a yellow card since there is 1 yellow card and 10 cards overall.  To find the probability of this event happening twice, you do 1/10 * 1/10 = (1*1)/(10*10) = 1/100
