From a pack of cards two cards are drawn one after the other, with replacement. The probability that the first is a red card and the second is a king is_________?

A. 1/26
B. 3/52
C. 15/26
D. 11/26

Explanation:

Let E1 be the event of drawing a red card.

Let E2 be the event of drawing a king .
P(E1 ∩ E2) = P(E1) . P(E2)
(As E1 and E2 are independent)
= 1/2 * 1/13 = 1/26

Correct Answer: 1/26 ✔
