Question 465368: given a regular 52- card deck, what is the probabliuty of getting a 5-card hand with at least one heart? and what is the probabilty of getting a 5-card hand that consists of 3 red cards and 2 black cards? Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! given a regular 52- card deck, what is the probability of getting a 5-card hand with at least one heart?
---
P(at least one heart) = 1 - P(no heart)
= 1 - [39C5/52C5]
---
= 1 - [0.2215]
---
= 0.7785
===========================
and what is the probabilty of getting a 5-card hand that consists of 3 red cards and 2 black cards?
---
P(3red and 2 black)
= [26C3*26C2]/[52C5]
= 0.3251
