The probability of drawing three queens from a standard deck of cards is 0.000162.

<h3>What is the probability?</h3>

Probability refers to a possibility that deals with the occurrence of random events.

The probability of all the events occurring need to be 1.

P(E) = Number of favorable outcomes / total number of outcomes

Total cards = 54

No. queens in a deck = 4

Probability of drawing a queen card = 4/54

Now that 1 queen has been taken, the no. of cards becomes = 53

and

no. of queens = 3

Probability of getting a queen again = (3/53)(4/54)

Two queens have already been removed.

No. of cards in the deck = 52

No. of queens in the deck = 2

Probability of drawing three queens

= (2/52)(3/53)(4/54)

= 0.000162 approximately

The probability of drawing three queens from a standard deck of cards is 0.000162.
