Sagot :

Answer:

(a)So, there are 2 kings in red- one of hearts and the other of diamonds. Therefore, the probability of selecting a red king from a deck of cards= 2/52 or 1/26.

(b) There are 6 red face cards in a 52-card deck (so 46 other cards). PROBABILITIES compare the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes: The PROBABILITY of getting a red face card is 6/52 = 3/26.

The odds in favor of getting a red king will be 1/26. And the odds against getting a red king will be 25/26.

What is probability?

Its basic premise is that something will almost certainly happen. The percentage of favorable events to the total number of occurrences.

You are dealt one card from a 52-card deck.

Total events = 52

The odds in favor of getting a red king will be

Favorable events = 2

Then the probability will be

P = 2/52

P = 1/26

The odds against getting a red king will be

q = 1 – P

q = 1 – 1/26

q = 25/26
