The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step-by-step, we will follow these instructions: ### Step 1: Identify the cards in each pile We have two piles of cards: - **Pile 1 (Spades)**: Ace, King, Queen, Jack, Ten - **Pile 2 (Hearts)**: Ace, King, Queen, Jack, Ten ### Step 2: Draw the sample space The sample space consists of all possible outcomes when one card is drawn from each pile. We can represent the sample space as a set of ordered pairs (X, Y), where X is a card from the Spades pile and Y is a card from the Hearts pile. The sample space can be represented as follows: - (Ace, Ace), (Ace, King), (Ace, Queen), (Ace, Jack), (Ace, Ten) - (King, Ace), (King, King), (King, Queen), (King, Jack), (King, Ten) - (Queen, Ace), (Queen, King), (Queen, Queen), (Queen, Jack), (Queen, Ten) - (Jack, Ace), (Jack, King), (Jack, Queen), (Jack, Jack), (Jack, Ten) - (Ten, Ace), (Ten, King), (Ten, Queen), (Ten, Jack), (Ten, Ten) Thus, the complete sample space is: \[ S = \{ (A, A), (A, K), (A, Q), (A, J), (A, 10), (K, A), (K, K), (K, Q), (K, J), (K, 10), (Q, A), (Q, K), (Q, Q), (Q, J), (Q, 10), (J, A), (J, K), (J, Q), (J, J), (J, 10), (10, A), (10, K), (10, Q), (10, J), (10, 10) \} \] This gives us a total of \(5 \times 5 = 25\) possible outcomes. ### Step 3: Calculate the probability that both cards drawn are Kings Now, we need to find the probability that both cards drawn from the piles are Kings. 1. **Favorable outcomes**: The only favorable outcome for this event is (King, King). 2. **Total outcomes**: As calculated earlier, the total number of outcomes in the sample space is 25. The probability \(P\) of both cards being Kings is given by the formula: \[ P(\text{Both Kings}) = \frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}} = \frac{1}{25} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the probability that both cards drawn will be Kings is \(\frac{1}{25}\). ---
