4 cards drawn at random find probability all cards are hearts

3 answers

There are 52 cards in a deck, 13 of which are hearts.

The probability of drawing a heart on the first card is 13/52.

After drawing a heart, there are only 51 cards left in the deck, 12 of which are hearts.

The probability of drawing another heart on the second card is 12/51.

After drawing two hearts, there are only 50 cards left in the deck, 11 of which are hearts.

The probability of drawing a third heart is 11/50.

After drawing three hearts, there are only 49 cards left in the deck, 10 of which are hearts.

The probability of drawing a fourth heart is 10/49.

To find the probability of all four cards being hearts, we multiply the probabilities of each individual event:

(13/52) x (12/51) x (11/50) x (10/49) = 0.0026 or 0.26%.

Therefore, the probability of drawing all four cards as hearts is approximately 0.26%.
