Question

select the correct descriptor of the following problems: from a pack of 52 cards, two cards drawn together at random. What is the probability od both the cards being kings?​

Answer 1

`(1)/(221)`

Explanation:

We have to note that there are 4 kings in a deck of 52 cards.

This makes the probability of choosing a king the first time
`(4)/(52) = (1)/(13)`.

We now know that we can choose another king from the deck, but it's important to note that it's not a
`(1)/(13)` chance. We now only have 51 cards in the deck, and 3 kings left. This means the probability of choosing a king now is
`(3)/(51) = (1)/(17)`.

To find the probability of doing both these, we need to multiply the fractions.

`(1)/(13)\cdot(1)/(17)=(1)/(221)`

Hope this helped!
