Hi,
Suppose that you select 2 cards without replacement from a deck.
A. If the first card that you select is a king, what is the probability that the second card you select is a spade?
Might consider using: P(A|B) = P(A and B)/P(B) where P(A and B) = %284%2F52%29%2813%2F51%29
P(2nd is a spade|1st is a K) = %28%284%2F52%29%2813%2F51%29%29%2F%284%2F52%29=+13%2F51
