Question

5. A card is drawn from a well-shuffled pack of 52 playing cards. Find the probability
of getting
(i) a red card (ii) a king
(iii) a card of spades.​

Answer 1

(I)26/52=1/2

(ii)4/52=1/13

(iii)13/52= 1/4

Answer 2

Answer:

(I) 26/52 = 13/26= 1/2

(ii) 4/52 = 2/26= 1/13

(iii) 13/52= 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 52 card in a deck.

So, Total outcomes= 52

(I) Favourable outcomes = 26( cards of heart+ cards of diamonds) = 13 +13= 26

Probability = Favourable outcomes/Total outcomes= 26 /56 = 1/2

(ii) Favourable outcomes( card of king) = 4

Probability = Favourable outcomes/ Total outcomes= 4/52= 1/ 13

(iii) Favourable outcomes (cards of spades)= 13

Probability = Favourable outcomes /Total outcomes= 13/ 52= 1/4
