Two cards are drawn from a pack of 52 cards. The probability that one of the cards drawn is an ace and the other is a spade but none of the cards drawn is an ace of spades is
Answers
Answer:
1:18 and 1:4and 0
Step-by-step explanation:
probability of getting a ace is =4:56
so = 1:18
2) probability of getting a spade is = 13:52
so = 1:4
Probability of getting an ace of spades is 0.525
Given:
Number of cards drawn from a pack = 52
To Find:
probability of getting at least a spade and an ace.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that,
probability of getting at least one space and one ace = 1 - p(getting non-spade and non-ace).
Let A' be the event of getting at least a non-spade and a non-ace.
Let A be the event of getting at least a spade and an ace.
Now No of remaining cards (non-spade and non-ace ) = 52-13-3
= 36
where 13 are spades including one ace and 3 are aces of other suits)
The number of ways two card can be drawn =
and total number of ways drawing two cards from 52 cards are =
∴ p( getting non-space and non-ace) = = = 0.475.
Now p(getting at least a spade and an ace) = 1 - 0.475
= 0.525.
