There were a number of correct answers to this part of the question. However, some candidates 5 4 who identified and as the two correct probabilities then added them instead of multiplying 25 24 5 5 them. Other incorrect answers included and 2 × . 25 25

Very few correct answers to this part of the question were given. Many candidates did not recognise that the starting total for the first probability was the number of elements in F which should have been 15, or a correct follow through from their diagram, with many denominators of 25 or 24 often seen. For those who did start with the correct set, some managed to get appropriate denominators, but...
