Question

In a certain card​ game, the probability that a player is dealt a particular hand is 0.4. Explain what this probability means. If you play this card game 100​ times, will you be dealt this hand exactly 40 ​times? Why or why​ not?

Answer 1

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability that a player is dealt a particular hand = 0.4

When we perform any experiment in a larger number of times,

we expect 40% of the cases in favour of us i.e. getting a particular hand.

and we know that

probability is for long term not for short term.

So, we can say that

40% of the cases = 0.4 = $\dfrac{40}{100}$

Hence it is satisfied.
