Probabilities with Playing Cards Part 2
probability · dependent compound probability with a full deck
Understand notation for dependent events and calculate probability of drawing two kings without replacement.
Probabilities with Playing Cards Part 2 is a Grade 7 whole-class activity that extends dependent probability to a full 52-card deck. Students analyze the probability of drawing two kings without replacement using the structure P(A and B) = P(A) × P(B given A). The changing counts from 4/52 to 3/51 make conditional probability concrete.
Use it after students understand simpler dependent-event examples and are ready to work with formal notation. The full-deck context makes it easy to discuss why the second probability changes after the first card is removed.
