Using a stadard 52 card deck (no jokers) find the probability that one card is picked from the deck, that card is either below a five or it is a red. \n" ); document.write( "THERE ARE 26 RED CARDS. \n" ); document.write( "BELOW 5 THERE ARE CARDS WITH 4,3 AND 2 DENOMINATIONS =3*4=12 CARDS (ACE IS EXCLUDED..IF IT IS CONSIDERED AS 1 THEN THAT HAS TO BE INCLUDED IN WHICH CASE THERE ARE 4*4 =16 CARDS.) . BUT THEY INCLUDE 6 (OR WITH ACE 8 ) RED CARDS,WHICH ARE COUNTED ABOVE.SO EXCLUDING THESE WE HAVE 6 ( OR 8) CARDS BELOW 5. \n" ); document.write( "SO SUCCESS POSSIBILITIES =26+6(8)=32(34) \n" ); document.write( "TOTAL POSSIBILITIES =52 \n" ); document.write( "PROBABILITY OF SUCCESS = 32/52=8/13...OR....34/52=17/26 \n" ); document.write( " |
