Question

then well shuffled. One card is selected from the remaining cards. Find the probabil-
ity of getting
a) a heart
b) a king
c) a club
d) the 10 of hearts​

Answer 1

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:

Answer 2

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
