Answer 2

Answer:

4/13

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

Let A be an event drawing a card which is heart

Since there are 13 cards of suite heart in a deck of 52 cards,

P(A) = 13/52 = 1/4

Let B be an event drawing a card which is queen

Since there are 4 queens each from different suite,

P(B) = 4/13,

Probability that card drawn being a queen from suite of hearts is

P(A∩B) = 1/52

Probability of drawn card being a heart or queen is

P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B)

= 1/4 + 1/13 - 1/52

= 4/13
