Question

Sudesh choose a card from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards. Calculate the probability of getting a queen

Answer 1

Total number of cards = 52

Let E₁ be the event that the choosen card is a queen.

Number of queens = 4

Thus, P(E₁) = `"Number of queens"/"Total number of cards"`

= `4/52`

= `1/13`
