Question

From a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards, one card is drawn. Find the probability that the card drawn is a queen of black card.

Sum

Solution

Total number of possible outcomes = 52

n(S) = 52

Event of drawing a queen of black colour = {Q(spade), Q(club)} = E 

n(E) = 2 

Probability of drawing a queen of black colour = n(E)n(S)=252=126
