Question 1069181: If two cards are dealt, find the probability that they are the same suit.
*Find P(both diamonds OR both hearts OR both clubs OR both spades) Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The first card can be anything.
Once that is picked, the second card has to be in that suit, and there is a 12/51 probability or 4/17.
The probability is 4/17, exactly 4 times higher than picking a specific suit to have two cards the same.
