Question

*these questions are based on a 52 card deck without jokers*.
1)find the probability of drawing a face card that is a club.

2)find the probability of drawing a red card.

3)find the probability of drawing black cards 2 through 7.

4)find the probability of drawing a 7.

having to do with deck cards>1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 kings queens ive never played with deck cards before so this is hard for me.

Answer 1

Probability of desired outcomes is = Number of desired outcomes / total number of outcomes.

1)   There are 13 clubs out of 52 total cards.  So the probability of drawing a club when u draw it randomly, is  13/52 = 1/4

2)  Drawing a red card...  there are 13 diamonds and 13 hearts.  So probability is (13+13 )/ 52  = 1/2

3)  Back cards are 13 + 13.  Among these two suits of clubs and spades, we have 2 through 7 --- 6 cards in clubs and 6 cards in spades.  hence probability is = 12/52 = 3/13

4)  There are four 7s from the four suites in the deck.. hence probability is 4/52 = 1/13.
