Question

One card is drawn from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards. Find the probability of getting a red face card.

Answer 1

Total number of cards in a well-shuffled deck = 52

Since, cards of diamond and heart are red

∴ There are 2 kings, 2 queens, 2 jacks

Total number of red face cards = 6

P (getting a red face card) =`"Number of favourable outcomes"/"Total number of outcomes"`

= `6/52`

= `3/26`
