Answer Choices:

A. 1/169

B. 1/91

C. 1/221

D. 25/338

Answer 1

Answer: A) 1/169

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 kings out of 52 cards total.

4/52 = 1/13 is the probability of selecting a king at random.

Using replacement, (1/13)*(1/13) = 1/169 is the probability of selecting two kings.
