Answer:

Probability of choosing one club and one spade = 0.6025

Explanation:

Total number of cards= 52 cards

For the first event

Probability of choosing a club

Toatal club = 13 cards

Probability of choosing a club

= 13/52

Probability of choosing a club

= 1/4

Probability of choosing a club

=0.25

For the second event

Probability of choosing a spade

Toatal spade = 13 cards

Probability of choosing a spade

= 13/52

Probability of choosing spadep

= 1/4

Probability of choosing a spade = 0.25

Probability of both = 0.25*0.25

Probability of both = 0.6025
