=1/4

=0.25

So 1/4 or 0.25 is the required answer.

Answer 2

• Answer:

The probability of getting a diamond or a face card is 11/26

• Step-by-step explanation:

A deck of playing cards consists of 52 cards. Here,

• 26 blacks cards - (i) 13 cards of the club, and (ii) 13 cards of spades.
• 26 red cards - (i) 13 cards of heart, and (ii) 13 cards of the diamond.

Face cards

The cards of King, Queen, and Jack are called face cards.

Total face cards = 12 Cards

Now,

A favorable outcome is getting a diamond or a face cards

= cards of diamond (three face cards already there) + 9 face cards left.

= 13 + 9

= 22

So,

Probability(of getting a diamond or a face card) = 22/52 = 11/26
