Hello!

The chance for it to happen the first time is 5/12

The chance for the second is 5/12

You multiply these together to get the answer of 25/144

The answer is 25/144

Hope this helps!
the whole probabilities are 144 (12*12)

and the probability to select blue marble twice is 25 (5*5)

so the answer is 25/144




good luck
