Question 678497: 2. if each card in a standard 52 card deck of playing cards has the same probability of being drawn, give the probability of drawing the following cards.
a) a black king
b) an even numbered red card
c) 3 consecutive queens
d) 2 cards of the same suit (i.e2 diamonds or 2 hearts or two clubs or 2 spades)
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2. if each card in a standard 52 card deck of playing cards has the same probability of being drawn, give the probability of drawing the following cards.
a) P(a black king) = 2/52 = 1/26
--------------------------------------
b) P(an even numbered red card) = 10/52 = 5/26
--------------------------------------
c) 3 consecutive queens
I have no idea what consecutive queens are.
--------------------------------------
d) P(2 cards of the same suit) = [4*13C2/52C2] = 4*78/52C2 = 0.2353
