Question

A card is drawn at random from a pack of well shuffled 52 playing cards.

Find the probability that the card drawn is –

i) a spade ii) Ace card iii) Red card​

Answer 1

Answer:

1) 13 /52

2) 4/52 .. 2/26

3) 26/52 .. 13/26

Answer 2

total cards=52

Explanation:

(i) no.of spade cards=13

P(E)=no.of spade cards/total cards

P(E)=13/52

P(E)=1/4

(ii) no.of ace cards=4

P(E)=no.of ace cards/total cards

P(E)=4/52

P(E)=1/13

(iii) no.of red cards=26

P(E)=no.of red cards/total cards

P(E)=26/52

P(E)=1/2
