that the card drawn is (1) a king (2) a spade (3) a red queen (4) a black 8​

Answer 1

Answer:

1- 1/52

2- 4/52=1/13

3- 1/52

4- 8/52

Answer 2

Answer:

1. 1/13

2.13/52

3.1/26

4.1/26

Step-by-step explanation:

1. There are 4 kings in a deck of card .. so by formula you get 'no. of favourable outcomes/total outcomes' so you get 4/52.. you can further simplify this to 1/13

2.Using the same formula, there are 13 cards of spade in a deck so you get 13/52

3. Using the same formula, there are 2 red queen cards so you get 2/52..you can further simplify this to 1/26

4. Same with this one..there are 2 '8 black' in a deck and dividing it by the total no. of cards..you get 2/52 and simplifying it you get 1/26

if you would like to know what kind of cards are in a deck of cards.. there is a total of 52 cards which are classified into black and red cards. There are 26 black cards( spade and clubs) and 26 red cards ( heart and diamonds) . They each ( spade,club,heart,diamond) have their respective ace, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,jack,queen and king.
