→ Here is some facts about playing cards .
1 . A deck of playing cards has 52 cards .
2. There are 4 suits, namely (i)Spades , (ii) Clubs , (iii) Hearts , and (iv) Diamonds . There are 13 cards of each suits .
3. Spades and clubs are black cards . ( 26 cards . )
4. Hearts and diamonds are red cards . ( 26 cards . )
5. There 12 face cards , namely 4 kings, 4 queens and 4 jacks .
▶ Now, A/Q
(i) A face card .
→ Total number of face card = 12 .
•°• P(E) of face card = ( Number of face card )/( Total number of cards ) .
= 12/52 .
= 3/13 .
(ii) A queen of diamond .
→ Total number of queen of diamond = 1 .
•°• P(E) of queen of diamond = ( Number of queen of diamond)/( Total number of cards ) .
= 1/52 .
(iii) A card of spades or an ace .
→ There are 13 cards of spades including one ace and there are 3 more aces .
→ So, the number of favourable cases = 13 + 3 = 16 .
•°• P(E) of getting a card of spades or an ace
= 16/52 .
= 4/13 .
(iv) Neither a jack nor a king .
→ There are 4 jacks and 4 kings .
→ So, the number of cards which are neither a jack nor a kings = [ 52 - ( 4 + 4 ) ] = 44 .
•°• P(E) of getting a card neither a jack nor a king
= 44/52 .
= 11/13 .
✔✔ Hence, it is solved ✅✅.

total number of card= 52
number of face card= 12
number of queen of diamond=1
number of spade=13
number of ace= 4
13+3=16
number of card except jack or king=52-4+4
52-8=44
1. probability of obtaining face card= 12/52
3/13
2. probability of obtaining queen of diamond= 1/52
3. probability of spade or an ace= 16/52
4/13
4. probablity of niether jack nor king=
44/52= 11/13
