Question

the king queen and jack of clubs are removed from the from a deck of 52 playing card and then well shuffled one card is drawn at random from the remaining card find the probability of getting 1) King 2) the 10 of heart

Answer 1

given total no. of cards = 52
no. of cards removed = 3
remaining cards = 52 - 3 = 49
1. a heart
fav outcomes = 13
p( heart ) = favourable out comes / total outcomes
= 13/49
2.a king
no. of fav outcomes = 3
p( king) = favourable outcomes/total outcomes
= 3/49
3. a black queen
fav outcomes = 1
p( black queen) = favourable outcomes/ total outcomes
= 1/49
