For the first card,
\n" ); document.write( "\"P%28R%29=26%2F52=1%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "For the second red card,
\n" ); document.write( "\"P%28R%29=25%2F51\"
\n" ); document.write( "So for two red cards,
\n" ); document.write( "\"P%28R%2CR%29=%281%2F2%29%2825%2F51%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"P%28R%2CR%29=25%2F102\"
\n" ); document.write( "The total possible number of ways to deal two cards is,
\n" ); document.write( "\"N=52%2A51=2652\"
\n" ); document.write( "So the total ways to deal (R,R) is
\n" ); document.write( "\"N%5BRR%5D=%2825%2F102%29%282652%29=highlight%28650%29\"
