Answers
Answer:
After removing the King, queen and Jack of clubs from a deck of 52 cards,
Number of total cards left= 52–3= 49
Number of club cards left= 13–3= 10
Number of heart cards=13
So, the probability of getting a heart= 13/49
The probability of getting a club= 10/49
The probability of getting the 10 of hearts= 1/49 ( as there is only 1 card of 10 hearts).
Step-by-step explanation:
After removing king queen and jack of club the remaining number of card will be 49 .
Probability of A Heart card .
Favourable events = 13
Total events = 49
Probability = favourable events/ total events
→ 13/49
Probability of a king
favourable events = 3
Total event = 49
Probability = favourable event/ total event
→ 3/49
Probability of a club
favourable events = 10
Total event = 49
Probability = favourable event/ total event
→ 10/49
probability of 10 of heart
favourable events = 1
Total event = 49
Probability = favourable event/ total event
→ 1/49
