Question

4. From a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards, one card is drawn at random. Find the probability of getting:
a) a black card? b) a number card? c) a black face card? d) a 5 of red cards?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

4 Kings (2 red and 2 black), 4 Queens (2 red and 2 black). Therefore, the probability of finding a non-face card in a well shuffled deck of 52 playing cards is 1013 . The probability of finding either a black king or a red queen in a well shuffled deck of 52 playing cards is 113.
