Is it 3/10? Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Two cards are drawn from a shuffled deck of three red and two black cards. They are chosen in sucession. Find the probability that both the first and second card is red.
Prob (red on 1st card)=3/5
Prob (red on 2nd card when 1st card is not replaced in the deck)=2/4
Prob (RR) = [(3/5)*(2/4)]= 3/10
