Answer:
[tex]\frac{16}{2704}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
In a standard deck of 52 playing cards, there are 4 variations of every number. These would be 1 of Spade
, 1 of Heart
, 1 of Clubs
, and 1 of Diamonds. Therefore the possibility of getting one of these numbers is 4/52. In order to find the probability of selecting a six and then selecting a five in consecutive order, we need to multiply the probability of selecting the six by the probability of selecting a five.
[tex]\frac{4}{52} * \frac{4}{52} =[/tex] [tex]\frac{16}{2704}[/tex]
Therefore, the probability of this happening would be [tex]\frac{16}{2704}[/tex]
