Question

The,king,queen and jack of diamonds are removed from a pack of 52 cards and then the pack is well-shuffled. Acard is drawn from the remaing cards.find the probability of getting a card i. Diamond ii. Jack

Answer 1

Answer:

10/49,

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of cards in the pack= 52

Total number of cards of each pattern=13

i.) Given:  The,king,queen and jack of diamonds are removed from the pack.

==>New number of cards=52-3=49

    New number of diamond cards=13-3=10

Therefore,

Probability(Diamond)= NO of favourable outcomes / total number of outcomes

                                  =10/49

ii.) Given:  The,king,queen and jack of diamonds are removed from the pack.

==>New number of cards=52-3=49

    New number of jacks=4-1=3

   Total number of jacks in pack=4.

==>Probability(Jacks)= NO of favourable outcomes / total number of outcomes

                                  =3/4
