If you have a group of 5 men and 4 women and we selected two at random, without replacement then find the probability that they are all men
If you have a group of 5 men and 4 women and we selected two at random, without replacement then find the probability that they are all men
a) Probability 1st selection is a man 5 / 9
b) Probablilty 2nd selection is a man 4 / 8
Probability both a) and b) happen (5 / 9) • (4 / 8) = 20 / 72
reduces to 5 / 18
