Question

a card is drawn from a well shuffled deck of 52 cards find the probability that the card is neither a heart nor a king is

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

ANSWER

Total number of cards =52.

So the number of possible outcomes =52.

Let E be the event of getting neither a heart nor a red king.

There are 13 heart cards and 1 other red king. So remaining cards =52−13−1=38

There will be 38 cards which are neither a heart nor a red king.

Number of favourable outcomes =38

P(E)=

Numberofpossibleoutcomes

Numberoffavourableoutcomes

P(E)=38/52=19/26

Hence the probability of getting neither a heart nor a red king is 19/26.

Answer 2

Answer :

Total number of cards =52

P(E) of neither a heart nor a king = 38/52

= 19/26

(Total number of heat cards = 13 and 1 king card - 52

52 - 14 =38

So, there are 38 cards which are neither a heart card nor a king card )
