Question

Your friend has two standard decks of 52 playing cards and asks you to randomly draw one card from each deck. What is the probability that you will draw two spades? Express your first answer as a fraction in simplest form, and round your percent answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

.25 or 25%

There are 13 cards of each shape, which is a fourth of 52. If there are 2 decks(52+52) with 13 spade cards each, there is a total of 26 spade cards. 26/104=.25
