Question

From a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards, one card is drawn. Find the probability that the card drawn is not a face card.

Answer 1

Total number of possible outcomes = 52 

n(S) = 52 

Probability of not drawing a face card = 1 – probability of drawing a face card

Probability of not drawing a face card = `1 - 3/13`

= `(13 - 3)/13`

= `10/13`
