two cards are drawn at random from a deck of well shuffled cards. Determine the probability that both the cards are Aces.
there are 4 aces in the deck so the probability of drawing an ace would be 4/52 the probability of drawing another ace would be 3/49 <-bevause the cards decreased since you drew one card to get the probability of drawing consecutively just multiply 4/52 x 3/49 got it??
4/52 x 3/51 sorry
probability of drawing another ace is 3/51 then the probability of drawing both aces is 4/52 x 3/51
4/52x3/51 sounds right (y)
idk why i wrote 49 @_@
Plz explain your answer
do you get why it's 4/52?
why its 3/51
?
3 is because you have picked 1 (one) Ace out of the four already and 51 because you have picked 1 (one) card out of the entire deck already
because you drew one ace already so there would be 3 aces left and 51 cards left
