Let us find the probability that both selected cards are face cards. \n" ); document.write( "Total face cards in 52 card suit = 12 \n" ); document.write( "SO probability of face card on 1st draw = 12/52 \n" ); document.write( "After replacing of first card, probability of face card on 2nd draw = 12/52 \n" ); document.write( "So probability that both selected cards are face card = (12/52)*(12/52) \n" ); document.write( "= 9/169 \n" ); document.write( "So, probability that both selected cards are not face card = 1 - 9/169 \n" ); document.write( "= 160/169 \n" ); document.write( " |
