Q1) peter throws 2 different dies together and finds the product if the 2 numbers obtained. Reena throws a die and squares the number obtained. Who has the better chance to get the no 25?
Q2) cars on which the numbers 1-100 are written are put in a bag and mixed thoroughly. A card is drawn at random from the bag. Find the probability that the card taken out has (i) an even no. (ii) a number which is a multiple of 13 (iii) a perfect square number (iv) a prime no less than 20
Q3) the king, queen and jack of clubs are removed from a deck if 52 cards. The remaining cards are mixed together and then a card is drawn at random from it. Find the probability of getting (i) a face card (ii) a card of hearts (iii) a card of clubs (iv) a queen of diamonds

it's very easy
Solution 1:
It is given that Peter throws 2 dice at a time and he multiplies both the numbers which are obtained. The possibile outcomes when 2 dice are thrown at a time are:
(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (1, 6)
(2,1), (2,2), (2,3), (2,4), (2,5), (2,6)
(3,1), (3,2), (3,3), (3,4), (3,5), (3,6)
(4,1), (4,2), (4,3), (4,4), (4,5), (4,6)
(5,1), (5,2), (5,3), (5,4), (5,5), (5,6)
(6,1), (6,2), (6,3), (6,4), (6,5), (6,6)
These all are 36 outcomes
If Peter is Multiplying both the obtained number, then the possibility of getting 25 will be only in 1 case [which is (5,5)].
So,
Now, it is given that Reena throws only 1 dice and squares the number which is obtained (Number²). Total possible outcomes when 1 dice is thrown are:-
1,2,3,4,5 and 6.
Possibility of getting 25 after squaring any of the number is possible only in 1 case(5²=25).
Hence possibility of Reena is more than that of Peter's.
Solution 2:
In this question, we are given that numbers from 1 to 100 are written on a card and put into a bag. We are asked to find the possibility of obtaining:
• An even number.
• Multiply of 13.
• Perfect square number.
• Prime number less than 20.
There are total outcomes=100 where 50 are even and 50 are odd. Even and odd number will be obtained after every proceeding number.
So,
Multiples of 13 upto 100 are:
13,26,39,52,65,78,91
These are 7 outcomes.
Perfect square number upto 100 are:
1²=1
2²=4
3²=9
4²=16
5²=25
6²=36
7²=49
8²=64
9²=81
These are 9 outcomes.
So,
Prime numbers less than 20 are:
2,3,5,7,9,11,13,17,19
These are 9 outcomes.
So,
Solution 3:
Cards in a deck are:
These are total 52 cards, of which face cards are of 3 types J, Q, K. There are 13 cards of each symbol (Heart, Spade, Club, diamond).
In the Question we are given a statement that king(K), Queen (Q) and Jack(J) of club are removed from the deck. So total cards will remain 49.
Now we are asked to find probability of:
• A face card
• A card of heart
• A card of club
• A queen of diamond
~A face card
Total face card will be 3×4 (Symbols)=12
3 card are removed so face card will be 12-3=9
So,
~A card of heart
Each symbol has 13 cards.
So,
~A card of club
There are 13 cards of each symbol but 3 cards from club are removed. So total card of club will be 13-3=10
So,
~A Queen of diamond
There is only 1 card of each symbol as given in the above table.
So,
