Q. You pick a card at random. Without putting the first card back, you pick a second card at random. 1234What is the probability of picking a 3 and then picking a 3? Write your answer as a percentage. ____%
Calculate Probability of 3: Step 1: Calculate the probability of picking a 3 from the set \{1,2,3,4\}.The probability of picking a 3 is 1 out of 4, so it's 41.
Update Set After First Pick: Step 2: After picking one 3, the set becomes \{1,2,4}.Theprobabilityofpickinga3againfromthissetis0,sincethereareno3$s left.
Multiply Probabilities: Step \(3\): Multiply the probabilities of the two events.\(\newline\)Probability of picking first \(3\): \(\frac{1}{4}\)\(\newline\)Probability of picking second \(3\): \(0\)\(\newline\)Total probability = \(\frac{1}{4} \times 0 = 0\)
