20 A jar contains 6 red sweets and 4 green sweets. A sweet is drawn at random from the jar.
If it is a red sweet, it is put back into the jar, before the second sweet is drawn. If it is a
green sweet, it is not put back into the jar, and the second sweet is drawn straight away.
Calculate the probability that
(a) two green sweets are drawn, (b) a red sweet and a green sweet are drawn.
