A,B & C in order cut a pack of cards replacing them after each cut, on condition that first who cuts a spade shall win a prize. find their respective chances?
Probability of A winning = 1/4
Probability of B winning = Probability of A losing * Probability of B winning
= 3/4 * 1/4 = 3/16
Probability of C winning = Probability of B losing * Probability of C winning
= 13/16 * 1/4 = 13/64
Is this correct?
