Question

One card is drawn at random from a well-shuffled pack of 52 cards. What is the probability that, the card is either a red card or a king:

Answer 1

Total cards=52

No.of red cards=26

No.of kings=4

two kings cards are already included in red cards

so left kings are two

Therefore, possible outcomes are 26+2=28

probability = possible outcomes/total outcomes

=>28/52 is the answer

Answer 2

Total number of all possible outcomes =52

Let E be the event of getting a red card or a king.

There are 26 red cards (including king) and there are 2 more kings,

So,the number of favorable outcomes =(26+2)=28

P(getting a red card or a king )=P(E)=28/52=7/13
