Answer: 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

the card is not being replaced, so it is a dependent event.

Event A: picking an odd number

There are 4 cards total, and 2 odd numbered cards.

P(A) = 2/4 = 1/2

Event B: picking an even number.

There are now three cards total, because the card from Event A was not replaced. There are two even numbered cards.

P(B) = 2/3

P(A+B) = P(A) x P(B)

P(A+B) = 1/2 x 2/3 = 2/6 = 1/3
