Question

A pack of cards has one card missing. Two cards are drawn and are found to be spades. What is the probability that the missing card is not a spade?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of cards = 52

Total number of cards that are spade = 13

Given that the 2 cards drawn are spade

⇒ The total cards on the deck = 52 - 2 = 50

⇒ The total number of spades = 13 - 2 = 11

Find the probability that the card lost is a spade:

P(spade) = 11/50

Answer: The probability is 11/50
