There are 13 diamond cards in a deck of 52, so the probability of drawing the first diamond card is 13/52.
After drawing the first diamond card, there are 12 diamond cards left in a deck of 51 cards. So, the probability of drawing the second diamond card after drawing the first one is 12/51.
To calculate the probability of drawing two diamond cards, we multiply the probabilities of drawing the first and the second diamond card:
(13/52) * (12/51) = 0.0588
Converting to percent form and rounding to the nearest hundredth:
0.0588 * 100 = 5.88%
Therefore, the probability of drawing two diamond cards is 5.88%.
A standard deck of 52 cards contains four suits, hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades Each suit has 13 cards ace, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, jack, queen, and king Two cards are randomly drawn without replacement Calculate the probability of drawing two diamond cards.
