Question

The king, queen and jack of clubs are removed from a deck of 52 playing cards and the remaining cards are shuffled. A card is drawn from the remaining cards. Find the
probability of getting a card of queen

Answer 1

Total no. of remaining cards = 52 – 3 = 49

E ⟶ event of getting queen

No. of favorable outcomes = 3 (4 – 1) {Since queen of clubs is removed}

Probability, P(E) =`"No.of favorable outcomes"/"Total no.of possible outcomes"`

P(E) =3/49
