A problem in a test given to small children asks them to match each of three pictures of animals to the word identifying that animal. If a child assigns the three words at random to the three pictures, find the probability distribution for Y, the number of correct matches. (Enter your probabilities as fractions.) P(Y = 0)= P(Y = 1)= P(Y = 2)= P(Y = 3)=
