Question

In a game of checkers, there are 12 red game pieces and 12 black game pieces. Julio is setting up the board to begin playing. What is the probability that the first two checkers he pulls from the box at random will be two red checkers?

Answer 1

1/2 (One and a half) since 12 and 12 are even and there would be a fifty fifty chance of getting one or the other or two of the same.
