Question

One card is drawn from a well shuffled deck of 52 cards. Find the probability of getting a spade

Answer 1

Total no. of possible outcomes = 52 (52 cards)

E ⟶ event of getting a spade

No. favourable outcomes = 13 {13 spades}

P(E), =`"No.of favorable outcomes"/"Total no.of possible outcomes"`

P(E) =13/52 =1/4
