The probability of drawing a spade in a standard 52 card deck is 13 in 52, or 1 in 4. The probability of drawing a second spade, assuming the first spade was not replaced back into the deck, is 12 in 51. The probability, then, of drawing two spades is the product of those two probabilities, or 12 in 204, or 1 in 17.
