Question 78

A quality control inspector examines a batch of precision components. The probability that a component is 'Grade-A' (AAA) is 0.25, and the probability it is 'Grade-B' (BBB) is 0.75. The inspector selects two components at random, one after the other, with the first being replaced before the second is drawn.

Calculate the probability that both components are of the same grade.
