Question

Find the probability of drawing a 6 and then a 6

(without replacement) from a standard deck of carNs.

Answer 1

A deck of cards has 52 total cards and four 6’s

Picking a 6 first would be 4/52 = 1/13

Without replacing there are 51 cards left and three 6’s

Picking a 6 would be 3/51 = 1/17

Probability of doing both is:

1/13 x 1/17 = 1/221
