Given:
A deck of 52 playing cards is given.
Required:
Probability of selecting a number card, a red card and an ace.
Answer:
There are 40 number cards.
Therefore, probability of selecting a number card=
[tex]\frac{1}{40}[/tex]
There are 26 red cards.
Therefore, probability of selecting a red card=
[tex]\frac{1}{26}[/tex]
The probability of selecting an ace =
[tex]\frac{1}{52}[/tex]
Final Answer:
The Probabilities of selecting a number card, a red card and an ace are,
[tex]\frac{1}{40},\frac{1}{26},\frac{1}{52}[/tex]
respectively.
