mr morris needs two students to help with a demonstration for her class of 12 girls and 14 boys. She randomly chooses two students. What is probability that she choose two girls

The class starts out with 26 students, of whom 12 are girls and, perhaps unlike Mr Morris, are sure of it. The probability of the first random choice being a girl is 12/26. If successful, there are now 25 students left, of whom 11 are girls. The probability of a girl on the 2nd random choice is 11/25. The probability that BOTH random choices are successful is (12/26) x (11/25). That's (132/650), or about 20.31% (rounded).
