Solution:-
a.) Total number of cards in a deck = 52
Number of black cards in a deck = 13 × 2 = 26
Probability = number of favourable outcomes / total number of outcomes
Probability of getting a black card = number of black cards / total number of cards
= 26/52
= 1/2
Therefore, the probability of getting a black card is 1/2.
b.) Total number of cards in a deck = 52
Number of red cards in a deck = 13 × 2 = 26
Probability = number of favourable outcomes / total number of outcomes
Probability of getting a red card = number of red cards / total number of cards
= 26/52
= 1/2
Therefore, the probability of getting a red card is 1/2.
c.) Total number of cards in a deck = 52
Number of face cards in a deck = 3 × 4 = 12
Probability = number of favourable outcomes / total number of outcomes
Probability of getting a black card = number of face cards / total number of cards
= 12/52
= 3/13
Therefore, the probability of getting a face card is 3/13.
