Question

a card is drawn at random from a well shuffled pack of 52 playing cards find the probability of getting a red card

Answer 1

Heya,

=> Total no.of cards = 52
=> No. of red cards {Heart and diamond} = 26
= No. of heart cards = 13
= No. of diamond cards = 13
=> No. of black cards {Spade and club} = 26
= No. of spade = 13
= No. of club = 13

ATQ,

P (getting a red card) = n(E)/n(S) = 26/52 = 13/26 = 1/2

Hope my answer helps you :)
