Question

one card is drawn from a well -shuffled deck of 52 cards(no jokers). Find the probability of drawing a card below a 9 (count Ace as high)

Answer 1

Answer:

To find the probability that the card will be below, above a

nine, we need to determine how many cards are below above a

nine at the same time in the deck, and then divide that number by 52.

p( E∪F) = pE+pF-p(E∩F). If we let E be

the event of a card below a five and F be the even that a card is above

a 9, then we can use what we got for parts d, e, and f to answer this

question. This will give us 12/52+20/52-0/52 = 32/52 = 8/13
