b) a spade given the card is red.
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A card is selected from a deck of 52 playing cards. Find the probability of selecting
a) a seven given the card is a not a face card. (An ace is not a face card.)
# of face cards = 12
# of not face = 40
# of 7's = 4
# of 7's that are not face cards 4
P(7 | not face) = 4/40 = 1/10
------------------------------------------
b) a spade given the card is red.
# of red cards = 26
# of spades = 13
# of spades that are red = 0
P(spade | red) = 0/26 = 0
