Question 499501: A card is drawn from a pack of 52 cards and it is thrown away . Then another card is drawn . Find the probability that it is king. Answer by edjones(8007) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 12/13 * 4/51 = 48/663 (12/13 of the time a non king will be thrown away)
1/13 * 3/51 = 3/663 (1/13 of the time a king will be thrown away)
48/663 + 3/663 = 1/13 the probability that it is king.
