\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Please help : )\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "There are 26 black cards in a 52-deck pack\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Probability of getting a black card on 1st draw = \"26%2F52\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Probability of getting a black card on 2nd draw, without replacing 1st card, which could have been black = = \"25%2F51\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Probability of getting 2 blacks, without replacement = \"%2826%2F52%29+%2A+%2825%2F51%29\" = \"highlight_green%2825%2F102%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "OR\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "P(black & black) = P(B) * P(B) = \"%2826%2F52%29+%2A+%2825%2F51%29\" = \"highlight_green%2825%2F102%29\"
