Answer:
12.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Total card = 52
Total number of red card = 26
So, Probability of first card is red = [tex]\frac{26}{52}[/tex] or [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Total number of diamond card = 13
So, probability of second card is diamond = [tex]\frac{13}{52}[/tex] or [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
So, probability that the first card is a red card and the second is a diamond can be calculated as follows,
Probability(first card, second card) = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] or 0.125
Probability(first card, second card) = 0.125 or 12.5%
