Answer 2

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Out of these four card choices, for the first pick there are two even cards and four cards in total. This means that on the first pick there is a 2/4=1/2 chance that you pick an even card. On the second pick, if you do not replace the card, then there is 1 even card remaining, and 3 cards in total, leaving a probability of 1/3. Multiplying these two probabilities together, you get an overall chance of 1/6. Hope this helps!
