Respuesta :

Answer:

The number of ways to draw 2 cards from a deck of 52 cards

Probability of drawing the ace of spades: P = 1/52 (there is 1 ace of spade)

Probability of drawing a king: P = 4/52 (there is 4 kings)

The first card is replaced before the 2nd card is drawn, then:

=> Probability of drawing the ace of spades and any king:

P =  Probability of 1st drawing the ace of spades and 2nd drawing any king +

      Probability of 1st drawing any king and 2nd drawing the ace of spades.

  = (1/52) x (4/52) + x (4/52) x (1/52)

  = (1/52) x (4/52) x 2

  = 0.003

Hope this helps!
