given a standard deck of 52 cards, 3 cards of dealt without replacement. if the first card is a queen, what is the probability that the second card will not be a queen

Sagot :

Answer:  16/17

Explanation:

The first card isn't put back or replaced, so we have 52-1 = 51 cards left over.

We have 4 queens and 52-4 = 48 non queens.

The probability of picking something that isn't a queen on the second selection is 48/51 = 16/17
