CCSS IP Math II 4.2.3 Example 3

Cate created a card game. In Cate’s game, a player draws 2 cards from a standard deck of cards, without replacing the first card before drawing the second. If the 2 cards are even numbers, the player wins. Face cards (ace, king, queen, and jack) are not considered even or odd. What is the probability that a player will win the game?

[list=1] [*]Use probability notation to write the problem to be solved. [*]Determine if the two events are independent or dependent. [*]Use the Multiplication Rule to determine which probability and conditional probabilities need to be calculated. [*]Find the probability and conditional probability. [*]Use the Multiplication Rule to find the compound probability of the two events.
