Question 613332: Draw four cards from a standard deck without replacement. The first card drawn is the 8 of hearts. The second card drawn is the king of spades. The third card drawn is a diamond. What is the probability that the fourth card drawn is also a diamond? Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
The probablility of drawing a diamond from a pristine deck of 52 is 13/52 (1/4) but since you have already drawn 1 diamond, reduce the numerator by 1 and since you have already drawn three cards, reduce the denominator by 3.
