Question

A card is drawn from a pack of 52 cards. Find the probability that the card drawn is ace of diamonds.

Answer 1

Number of possible outcomes when card is drawn from pack of 52 cards = 52

n(S) = 52

There is only one ace of diamonds.

E = event of drawing an ace of diamonds

n(E) = 1

Probability of drawing an ace of diamonds = `(n(E))/(n(S)) = 1/52`
