Answer 2

Answer:

The answer will be:

a. 1/2 or 0.5 or 50%

b. 1/13 or 0.07(approx.) or 7%(approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of playing cards = 52

Number of black card = 13 * 2                       (13 clubs and 13 spades)

                                     = 26 cards

Number of ace = 4 cards

Chance of withdrawing a black card or P(black card) =

                           = Total number of black card / Total no. of cards

                           = 26 / 52

                           = 1/2 or 0.5 or 50%.

Chance of withdrawing an ace card or P(ace card) =

                           = Total number of ace card / Total no. of cards

                           = 4 / 52

                           = 1/13 or 0.07(approx.) or 7% (approx.).

That's all.
