Question

Amelia randomly selects two cards, with replacement, from a normal deck of cards. Calculate the probability that: the first card is a 9 of Clubs and the second card is a 10 of Clubs.

Answer 1

1 / 2704

Explanation:

Number of cards in a deck = 52

9 of clubs in a deck = 1

10 of clubs in a deck = 1

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P(9 of club) = 1 / 52

With replacement ;

Then ;

P(10 of club) = 1 / 52

Hence,

P(9 of club, then 10 of club) = 1/52 * 1/52 = 1 / 2704
