a.
Answer to Problem 101E
The probabilities are 0.25 and 0.2353 respectively.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Number of spade cards in a deck = 13
Total number of cards = 52
Calculation:
The probability that the first card dealt is a spade is computed as:
The conditional probability that the second card is a spade given first one is also spade can be computed as:
Thus, the required probabilities are 0.25 and 0.2353.
b.
To find: The conditional probabilities that second, third and fourth card are spade.
