A standard deck of playing cards contains 52 cards, equally divided among four suits (hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades). Each suit has the cards 2 through 10, as well as a jack, a queen, a king, and an ace.

If the 3 of spades card is drawn from a standard deck and is not replaced, what is the probability that the next card drawn is a spade OR a king?

Respuesta :

if 3 of spades is drawn...and not replaced..

P(next card is spade) = 12/51
P(next card is a king) = 4/51

12/51 + 4/51 = 16/51

Answer:

5/17
