Jason has two bags with 6 tiles each. The tiles in each bag are shown below:

Make 6 squares. The squares are numbered sequentially from 1 to 6.

Without looking, Jason draws a tile from the first bag and then a tile from the second bag. What is the probability of Jason drawing an even tile from the first bag and an even tile from the second bag?

6 over 12
9 over 12
6 over 36
9 over 36

I got A

michele_laino · Answer

the probability to draw an event tile from a single bag, is:
p= favorable outcomes/ possible outcomes= 3/6

michele_laino · Answer

so, the requested probability, is the product of the two probabilities, to draw an even tile from each bag:
p=p_1*p_2= (3/6) * (3/6)=...
