Given:
A pack of cards
To find:
The probability of getting a black queen
Solution:
We can find the probability by following the given steps-
We know that a pack of cards has a total of 52 cards.
Of these, 26 cards are black (Club, and Spade) and 26 are red (Heart and Diamond).
Each head of Club, Spade, Heart, and Diamond has 13 cards each, and all of them have one queen.
Number of black queens=2
The probability is the ratio of favorable outcomes and total outcomes.
So, the probability of getting a black queen= total number of black queen cards/ total number of cards
Probability of getting a black queen= 2/52
=1/26
Therefore, the probability of getting a black queen is 1/26.
