Algebra.Com's Answer #362339 by Alan3354(69443) You can put this solution on YOUR website! You pull a card out of a standard 52-card deck and you pull one card out of another standard deck. What is the probability of pulling a 3 at least once? \n" ); document.write( "------ \n" ); document.write( "Each deck has 4 threes.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "getting one 3 is 1/13 + 1/13\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "getting two is 1/13 * 1/13 = 1/169\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Then 2/13 - 1/169 = 25/169. It's subtracted because getting one 3 is included in getting two 3's. \n" ); document.write( "---------- \n" ); document.write( "25/169\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
