What is the probability that you roll a dice and get 3, then get an ace from a deck, then (without replacing the other card) draw a black 2?

I Really need help!


Sagot :

Answer:  1/1989

=============================================================

Explanation:

1/6 is the probability of rolling a '3' since there is one side we want out of 6 total.

The probability of getting an ace is 4/52 because there are 4 aces out of 52 cards total.

If that card isn't put back, then we have 52-1 = 51 cards left. That means the probability of drawing a black 2 is 2/51. The numerator 2 has nothing to do with the card value of '2'. It has to do with the fact we have 2 black cards (2 of spades, 2 of clubs) out of 51 left over.

We multiply the fractions to get the final answer

(1/6)*(4/52)*(2/51)

(1*4*2)/(6*52*51)

8/15912

1/1989

When using a calculator, we can see that,

1/1989 = 0.0005 = 0.05%

There is a very small chance of all three events happening at the same time.
