Question

A card is drawn at random from a pack of 52 cards. Find the probability that card drawn is neither a heart nor a king

Answer 1

E⟶ event of getting neither a heart nor a king.

No. of favourable outcomes = 52 – 13 – 3 = 36 {since we have 13 hearts, 3 kings
each of spades, clubs & diamonds}

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

P(E) =36/52 =9/13
