Answer:0.96%

Explanation:

The probability of randomly selecting a heart from a standard deck of 52 playing cards is 13 out of 52, because there are 13 hearts in the deck (one for each rank). Therefore, the probability is:

Probability of selecting a heart card = (Number of heart cards) / (Total number of cards) = 13 / 52 = 1 / 4 = 0.25

So, the probability of randomly selecting a heart card from a deck of cards is 0.25, or 25%.

The probability of randomly selecting the letter "J" from a list of letters in the English alphabet is 1 out of 26, since there are 26 letters in the alphabet. Therefore, the probability is:

Probability of selecting the letter "J" = (Number of "J" letters) / (Total number of letters) = 1 / 26 ≈ 0.0385

So, the probability of randomly selecting the letter "J" from a list of letters in the alphabet is approximately 0.0385, or about 3.85%.

Multiply these 2 percentages together to get the combined probability:

To find the product of 25% and 3.85%, you can multiply these percentages together:

0.25

×

0.0385

=

0.009625

0.25×0.0385=0.009625

So,
