Question

from a well shuffled deck of 52 playing cards one card is drawn at random find the probability of getting


1.a face card of spade
2.a 10 of red colour​

Answer 1

1)

Total cards = 52

possible outcomes = 3 ( Since, There are 3 face cards in spade )

•°• P(E) = Number of possible outcomes ÷ Total number of outcomes

=> $\bold{\frac{3}{52}}$

2)

Total cards = 52

possible outcomes = 2 ( Because there are 2 10 cards in red color cards )

•°• P(E) = Number of possible outcomes ÷ Total number of outcomes

=> 2/52

=> $\bold{\frac{1}{26}}$

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

52cards in playing cards.

1card drawn

52-1=51

n(S)=51

1.12face cards in playing cards

n(A)=4

p(A)=4/51

10red cards

n(B)=10

p(B)=10/51
