Question
A card is chosen at random from a standard deck of 52
playing cards, without replacing it, a second card is chosen. What is the probability that first card chosen is king and the second card chosen is a Queen?Solution
P (king on first pick) = 4/52 P (Queen on second pick given king on first pick) = 4/51 P (King and Queen) = 4/52 × 4/51 = 4/663
