Solution
No. of face cards = 4
⇒ No. of favourable outcomes = 4
Total no. of cards = 15
⇒ No. of outcomes = 15
Probability of Sunil winning = `"No. of favourable outcomes"/"No. of outcomes"`
⇒ Probability of Sunil winning = `4/15`
No. of fours = 4
⇒ No. of favourable outcomes = 4
Total no. of cards = 15
⇒ No. of outcomes = 15
Probability of Reshma winning = `"No. of favourable outcomes"/"No. of outcomes"`
⇒ Probability of Reshma winning = `4/15`
