I have a probability question. I have tried this several different ways and can't get the correct answer.
You randomly draw two cards from a standard deck of playing cards without replacement. what is the probability the first card is a king and the second card is red?
for the king it would be 4/52. for the red and since there is no replacement it would be either 25/51 (the king could have been red) or 26/51 (the king wasn't red). multiplying I get 4/52 times 25/51 = 100/2652 = 0.0377. Or 4/52 times 26/51 = 104/2652 = 0.0392. I've tried several other combinations for the red cards and still can't make it work.
