Question

A card is drawn at random from a well shuffled pack of 52 playing cards find the probability that the drawn card is neither king nor a queen

Answer 1

no. of queens and kings= 2*4= 8
therefore, no. of possible outcomes= 52
no. of favourable  outcomes= 52-8= 44

Probability=44/52=11/13

therefore the probability is 11/13

Answer 2

Hi ,

Total possible outcomes = Number of cards = 52

Number of favourable outcomes = total cards - ( number of Kings + number of queens ) in the pack

= 52 - (4 + 4 )

= 52 - 8

= 44

P ( getting neither king nor queen )

= 44/ 52

= 11/13

I hope this helps you.
