Question

Playing cards from a pack of cards the following cards are kept face down:

Suhail wins if he picks up a face card. Find the probability of Suhail winning?

Answer 1

No. of face cards = 1

⇒ No. of favourable outcomes = 1

Total no. of cards = 7

⇒ No. of outcomes = 7

Probability of Sunil winning = `"No. of favourable outcomes"/"No. of outcomes"`

⇒  Probability of Sunil winning = `1/7`
