    Number of white chips = 4

    Number of black chips = 6

    Total number of chips = 4 + 6 = 10

    Choosing the first white chip:

    p (white chip) = 4/10 = 2/5

    Now the numbers are:

    Number of white chips = 3

    Number of black chips = 6

    Total number of chips = 3 + 6 =

    Choosing the second white chip:

    p (white chip) = 3/9 = 1/3

    p (white chip followed by white chip) = 2/5 * 1/3 = 2/15
