Comment content:
One card is drawn from a pack of 52 cards,each of the cards being equally likely to be drawn.Find the probability
Question:
The card drawn is neither a spade nor a king
a.11/13
b.1/2
c.2/13
d.11/26​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

no. of spade and king =4+4=8

left cards=52-8=44

P(not spade nor king)=44/52=11/13

Answer 2

Answer: a.

Step-by-step explanation:

As there exists four different shades in a deck of cards, 52 in count, thus the number of spades and kings will be 8(2 in each shade). Thus the probability that a randomlybdrawn.card is neither a spade nor a king can be calculated as:

P(A) = Order(number) of required events/ Order(Number) of total events.

Where,

P(A) is the probability of any event A.

Thus, our concern is with the other cards than the kings and spade, so the cards remaining are:

Required.cards = 52-8 = 44

Thus, by the above formula:

P(A) = 44/52 = 22/26 = 11/13.
