Answer:
The probability that both me and my best friend get the 100 classroom credits is 0.06%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Mr. Q's class is having a give-away where his students can receive 100 classroom credits, and he will pull names out of a hat and select two winners, and once a student wins, they are not eligible to win a second time, if there are 40 total people in the class, including me and my best friend, to determine what is the probability that both me and my best friend get the 100 classroom credits, the following calculation must be performed:
I = 1/40 = 0.025
my best friend = 1/39 = 0.02564
0.02564 x 0.025 = X
0.0006410 = X
X x 100 = 0.064
Therefore, the probability that both me and my best friend get the 100 classroom credits is 0.06%.
