anonymous · Answer

that's a differnet problem, but thank you

anonymous · Answer

So in 52 there are 4 aces..

So,
Probability of choosing an ace : 4/52

As there is only one queen of hearts,
so,


And probability of choosing a heart queen: 1/51

$$P = \frac{4}{52} \times \frac{1}{51} = \frac{1}{663}$$

anonymous · Answer

i thought it would have been 1/2652 or something

anonymous · Answer

why is it not 
1/52 x 1/51 ?
the ace of spades is only one, right (?___?)

anonymous · Answer

Sorry I am wrong..

anonymous · Answer

$$P = \frac{1}{52} \times \frac{1}{51} = \frac{1}{2652}$$

anonymous · Answer

go to the website i told

anonymous · Answer

okay, i did

anonymous · Answer

so, is it 1/2652?

anonymous · Answer

yup

anonymous · Answer

thank you

anonymous · Answer

1/52 times 1/51= 1/2652
Thats the probability of getting both an ace of spades and a queen of hearts, but the probability of getting the queen of hearts after just taking one card out is 1/51
Also note 1/1326 is the probability of getting a queen of hearts and an ace of spades if order does not matter.
