A pen holder contains 12 identical pens, 6 of which do not write. a child randomly selects a pen, replaces it, and selects again. find the probability that both pens do not write. (enter your probability as a fraction.)

Answer :

Total pens = 12
Pens that do not write = 6
P(both pens that do not write) = (6/12)(6/12) = 1/4

Answer: The probability that both cannot write is 1/4
