Question

You randomly draw two cards from a standard deck. Suppose you want to draw a queen twice in a row. What is the probability of picking a queen on the second draw if the events are dependent?
pls help

Answer 1

If the events are dependent, meaning that the first draw was a queen, then there are now only 51 cards remaining in the deck, and 3 of them are queens.

Therefore, the probability of picking a queen on the second draw if the events are dependent is 3/51 or 1/17, which is approximately 0.0588 or 5.88%.
