Question

A card is drawn at random from an ordinary pack of 52 playing cards. State the number of elements in the sample space if consideration of suits is not taken into account.

Answer 1

If consideration of suits is not taken into account, then one card can be drawn from the pack of 52 playing cards in ⁵²C₁ = 52 ways.
∴ n(S) = ⁵²C₁ = 52
