Question

You have a deck of cards and select two cards randomly, without replacing the first card before selecting the second one. What is the probability that you select a card in Diamonds followed by the 4 of Hearts?

Answer 1

There are 13 diamond cards in a standard deck of cards -> The probability of selecting a diamond card is 1/4.

There are only 1 '4 of Hearts' in a standard deck of cards -> The probability is 1/52.

So, for them to simultaneously happen, the odds are 1/4 x 1/52 = 1/208.
