Answer 2

total number of cards in the packet = 52
number of Lost card(s) = 1
remaining number of cards in the packet = 51 (52-1)
number of cards that are drawn from the remaining number of cards in the packet = 2
now the remaining number of cards in the pack = (51-2) 49
therefore the probability of the lost card being a heart= 2/49
the answer is 2 / 49
