Answer 1

Answer:

51/52 is the probability of not getting an ace of Hearts.

Step-by-step explanation:

A standard Deck of card has 52 cards. ( We're excluding the jokers and extra cards ).

The 52 cards are divided into 4 sets : Diamonds, Hearts, Clubs, Spades.

Here, each set has 13 cards. That are: Ace, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Jack, King and Queen.

Solution

Total cards = 52

Number of ace of Hearts in a deck of card = 1

Number of cards that are not ace of Hearts = 52 - 1 = 51

Probability of not getting an ace of Hearts:

⟹ Favourable outcomes/Total outcomes

⟹ 51/52

51/52 is the probability of not getting an ace of Hearts.
