Question

All the jacks kings and Queens are removed from the pack of 52 cards. One card is drawn at random. If ace is given value 1 . Find probability that carday has value 1.less than 5 2.more than 5 3.5

Answer 1

Since all the face card i.e. Kings Queens and Jacks are removed.Cards left in the deck are
52-12= 40 cards.
No.of Card whose value is less than 5
= 4×4=16.
Therefore probability= 16/40 = 2/5.

No.of Card whose value is more than 5
= 5×4=20.

Therefore probability = 20/40 = 1/2.

No.of Card whose value is 5 = 4.

Therefore probability = 4/40 = 1/10.

Hope it helps.
