Given that the second card drawn is a king, it means one king is already out of the deck, leaving 3 kings out of the remaining 51 cards (since one card, a king, is already drawn). Therefore, the probability that the first card drawn is a king given the second card is a king is 3/51, which simplifies to 1/17, or approximately 0.0588.
