5. Mr. Q's class is having a give- away where his students can
receive 100 classroom credits.
He will pull names out of a hat
and select two winners. Once a
student wins, they are not
eligible to win a second time. If
there are 40 total people in the
class, including you and your
best friend.

What is the probability that both you and your best friend get the 100 classroom
credits? (Show work please)

The probability that both me and my best friend get the 100 classroom credits is 0.06%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Mr. Q's class is having a give-away where his students can receive 100 classroom credits, and he will pull names out of a hat and select two winners, and once a student wins, they are not eligible to win a second time, if there are 40 total people in the class, including me and my best friend, to determine what is the probability that both me and my best friend get the 100 classroom credits, the following calculation must be performed:

I = 1/40 = 0.025

my best friend = 1/39 = 0.02564

0.02564 x 0.025 = X

0.0006410 = X

X x 100 = 0.064

Therefore, the probability that both me and my best friend get the 100 classroom credits is 0.06%.
