Answer:

The correct solution is "0.002". A further solution is given below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

The total number of playing cards,

= 52 cards

Total number of diamonds,

= 13

Now,

The probability of top four cards will be:

= [tex]P(First \ diamond)\times P(Second \ diamond)\times P(Third \ diamond)\times P(Fourth \ diamond)[/tex]On putting the values, we get

= [tex]\frac{13}{52}\times \frac{12}{51}\times \frac{11}{50}\times \frac{10}{49}[/tex]

= [tex]0.25\times 0.23\times 0.22\times 0.20[/tex]

= [tex]0.002[/tex]
