Question 116170: If you are dealt two cards successively (with replacement of the first) from a standard deck, find the probability of getting a heart on the first card and a diamond on the second? Answer by Fombitz(32388) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 52 cards
13 hearts, 13 diamonds, 13 spades, 13 clubs
P(Heart) = 13/52.
You replace the card
P(Diamond) = 13/52.
Independent events, multiply the probabilities.
P(Heart then Diamond) = 13/52*13/52 = 1/4*1/4 = 1/16
