Answers
Overview:
- A deck of a card has 52 cards, that are further divided into four suits: Hearts, diamond, spades, club.
- 26 cards are red that consists of 13 cards of Hearts and 13 cards of diamond.
- 26 cards are black that consists of 13 card of spades and 13 cards of clubs.
- Each suit consists of King, Queen, Jack, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 and Ace
- King, Queen, and Jack are called face cards. Each suit contains 3 face cards.
Solution:
The probability of getting a red face card from a well shuffled deck of card.
Number of cards in a deck = 52
Number of red face cards = 6
( 3 red face card from diamonds and 3 from hearts)
Probability = Number of favourable outcome/ Total outcomes
Probability = 6/52
Probability = 3/26
3/26 is the probability of getting a red face card.
The probability of getting a black face card from a well shuffled deck of card.
Number of cards in a deck = 52
Number of black face cards = 6
( 3 red face card from spades and 3 from club)
Probability = Number of favourable outcome/ Total outcomes
Probability = 6/52
Probability = 3/26
3/26 is the probability of getting a black face card.
As the number of black and red face card is same, the probability is same.
