Question

5. A man is know to speak truth 5 out of 6 times. He
draws a face card from a pack of 52 playing cards.
Find the probability that he reports it is a face card.
​

Answer 1

probability of face card is

$\frac{12}{52} \\ \frac{5}{6} \times \frac{12}{52 } \\ = \frac{5}{26}$

Answer 2

Answer:

5/26

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no. of face cards = 3×4 = 12

So , in every 6 times he says truth 5 times

Total no. of face cards = 3×4 = 12So , in every 6 times he says truth 5 times When he will report only 10 times that the card is a face cards In other two times , he'll say lie.

, in

So ,no. of favourable outcomes = 10

Total number of outcomes = 52

P(probability) = 10/52= 5/26 ( Ans)
