Hey Dorsa, Iโ€™m sorry for the delay and thanks for the feedack!
I also marked D, but I dot know why the answer is E.

Hi! i found this explanation online:

probability having two ยนโฐB with mass of 26 = 0,2 * 0,2 = 0,04

probability of 1 ยนโฐB and 1 ยนยนB with mass of 27 = (O,2 * O,8) + (0,2 * 0,8) = 0,32
if you draw a probability tree diagram you see you could have two possibilities ยนโฐB ยนยนB or ยนยนB ยนโฐB

probability having two ยนยนB with mass of 28 = 0,8 * 0,8 = 0,64

so a ratio of 1:8:16
