Question

Five cards - the ten, jack, queen, king and ace of diamonds ,are removed from the well-shuffled 52
cards. One card is then picked up at random. Find the probability of getting:
(a) neither a heart nor a king
(b) neither an ace nor a king,​

Answer 1

(a)31/47

(b)41/47

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not sure if the answers are correct.

But I tried my best to answer it

●If we will remove the ten,Jack,queen,king and ace of diamonds from well-shuffled 52 cards,47 cards will remain.

●(a) There are total 13 hearts and 3 kings left.

Therefore,a total of 31 cards are left.

Thus,P(a)=31/47

●(b)There are total 3 ace and 3 kings left.

Therefore,a total of 41 cards are left.

Thus,P(b)=41/47
