A card is drawn from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. find the probability that the card is an ace or a black card.

Respuesta :

answer:28/52 chance aka 54% chance

Work:
Prob(ace or black card)= Prob(ace) + Prob(black card) - P(ace and black card)

=4/52 + 26/52 -2/52 
=28/52

The probability that the card is an ace or a black card is 7/13

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

A standard card contains 52 cards. Hence the total outcome is 52.

  • Since there are 4 aces, the expected outcome is 4
  • The total number of black cards is 26
  • The total card that is ace and black is 2

Get the required probability;

Prob(ace or black card) = Prob(ace) + Prob(black card) - P(ace and black card)

Prob(ace or black card) =  4/52 + 26/52 -2/52  

Prob(ace or black card)  = 28/52

Hence the probability that the card is an ace or a black card is 7/13
