Answer:


(1)/(51)

Step-by-step explanation:

In a standard deck of cards, there are 52 cards, with 4 different suites (13 cards per suit)

Now, we need to know the number of cards that belong to the club suite and also the number of cards that are 6

So, let us get this

there are 13 club cards and there are 4 6's

Now, remember that the picking is without replacement

The probability of picking a club card is 13/52

Now, after picking this, we want to pick a 6

There are 51 cards left out of which we can pick 4 6's

So the probability is 4/51

The final probability value is the product of this two since we are dealing with an 'and'

We have this as:


(13)/(52)*(4)/(51)\text{ = }(1)/(51)
