The number of chips of different colors in Amy's bag is shown below:

-8 blue chips

- 9 pink chips

-1 white chip

Amy takes out a chip from the bag randomly without looking. She replaces the chip and then takes out another chip from the bag. What is the probability that Amy takes out a pink chip in both draws?

9 over 18 multiplied by 8 over 17 equals 72 over 306

9 over 18 plus 8 over 17 equals 297 over 306

9 over 18 multiplied by 9 over 18 equals 81 over 324

9 over 18 plus 9 over 18 equals 18 over 18

The third answer because you need to combine all of the numbers to get the denominator and the numerator is 9 because of the pink. Then you need to multiply it by itself.
