Question

what is the probability of not drawing a king in a standard deck of cards?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

4852

The chance of NOT getting a king is 4852 (because there are 4 kings).

Answer 2

Answer:

48/52

Step-by-step explanation:

Before you answer the question, you must know how much cards are in a pack. The answer would be 52.

Hearts: 4

Clubs: 4

Spades: 4

Diamonds: 4

And everything else has four of each.

Back to the question:

Since 4 Kings in the 52 cards,

Subtract 4 from 52 (52 - 4) to see how much cards are there in the pack excluding Kings. The answer would be 48 out of 52.

∴ The answer would be 48/52 or 12/13 in its simplified form.
