B. \(2/5\)
C. \(3/5\)
D. \(4/5\)
E. \(9/10\)

Correct answer is B
To solve, we find chance that both Kate and Amy on team out of 4 spots.

Out of 6 girls, 2 spots for Kate and Amy, 4 spots left for others. Total outcomes is ways to select 2 girls out of 6, \(C(6, 2)\) or \(\binom{6}{2}\).

Favorable outcomes, where Kate and Amy are on same team, is \(C(4, 2)\) or \(\binom{4}{2}\), since we select 2 girls from remaining 4 spots.

Probability is \(\dfrac{C(4, 2)}{C(6, 2)} = \dfrac{\binom{4}{2}}{\binom{6}{2}}\).

Simplifying, \(\dfrac{6}{15} = \dfrac{2}{5}\).

Therefore, correct answer is B.
