Question

A card is drawn from well shuffled pack of 52 cards. Find the probability of getting (i) 2 of spades​

Answer 1

Answer:

Total number of cards =52.

So the number of possible outcomes =52.

Let E be the event of getting ‘2’ of spades.

There will be only one card of ‘2’ spades.

Number of favourable outcomes =1

P(E)=

Numberofpossibleoutcomes

Numberoffavourableoutcomes

P(E)=1/52

Hence the probability of getting ‘2’ of spades is 1/52.

Answer 2

Answer:

The probability of getting "2" of spades is 1/52

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of cards =52.

So the number of possible outcomes =52.

Let E be the event of getting ‘2’ of spades.

There will be only one card of ‘2’ spades.

Number of favourable outcomes =1

P(E) = favourable outcome / possible outcome

= 1/ 52
