Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
8^2 + 15^2 = ?
64 + 225 = 17^2
289 = 289

The question is a little vague but I believe the answer would be 16. 16 divided in half is 8. And that is 8 less than 16. < Not the answer for this question.
I didn't understand the question until Maria answered, she is completely right! Sorry for the misunderstanding.
Answer:
0.45% probability that they are both queens.
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes
The combinations formula is important in this problem:
is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

Desired outcomes
You want 2 queens. Four cards are queens. I am going to call then A,B,C,D. A and B is the same outcome as B and A. That is, the order is not important, so this is why we use the combinations formula.
The number of desired outcomes is a combinations of 2 cards from a set of 4(queens). So

Total outcomes
Combinations of 2 from a set of 52(number of playing cards). So

What is the probability that they are both queens?

0.45% probability that they are both queens.
