Question

how many cards from a standard deck must be drawn to guarantee atleast 3 cards of the same suit have been drawn, pidgeon hole

Answer 1

The number of cards which must be drawn from the standard deck is 12.

Given a standard deck of cards.

We have to find the number of  cards to be drawn so that we will get atleast 3 cards from each suit. Because they have used atleast in the question so the cards can be more also so we have to reach at minimum level of cards to be drawn to guarantee atleast 3 cards of the same suit.

Number of suits in a  standard deck= 4 (Clubs, Hearts, Diamond,  Spades)

Cards in 1 suit=13

We need atleast 3 cards of the  same suit so we need atleast 3*4=12 cards. (3 from each suit)

Hence the minimum cards which must be drawn to get atleast 3 cards of the same suit is 12.
