Answer:

The probability of drawing a red card is
(2)/(15)

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 4 ways to pick a red card from the 10 cards

then you have 3 ways to pick a red card from the remaining 9 cards

P(2 red cards) = P(red on first card) * P(red on second card)

=
(4)/(10) * (3)/(9)

=
(12)/(90)

=
(2)/(15)


(2)/(15)
is the probability of drawing a red card without replacing the red card and then drawing another red card from a standard pack of cards.
