Question

All kings, queens and aces are removed from a pack of 52 cards. The remaining cards are well shuffled and then a card is drawn from it. Find the probability that the drawn card is a
1)red card
2)black face card

Answer 1

Since all the 4 kings,4 queens and 4 aces are removed...totally 12cards are removed and the deck has just 40 cards.
P(E) = no.favourable outcomes/total no. Of outcomes.
Since 6 red cards are removed
1) p(red card) = 20/40 = 1/2
Since 4 black face cards are removed
2)p(black face card) = 22/40 = 11/20.

Mark me as brainliest if there is another answer given.

Answer 2

Remaining cards = 40
probability for red card = 20/40 = 1/2
p for black card = 22/40= 11/20
