A box has 6 beads of the same size, but all are different colors. Tania draws a bead randomly from the box, notes its color, and then puts the bead back in the box. She repeats this 3 times. What is the probability that Tania would pick a yellow bead on the first draw, then a blue bead, and finally a yellow bead again?

1 over 216

1 over 36

1 over 6

1 over 2
