Question

You are certain to get a heart comma diamond comma club comma or spade when selecting cards from a shuffled deck. Express the indicated degree of likelihood as a probability value between 0 and 1 inclusive

Answer 1

Answer:

Probability = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of each type of card described in the question from within a full deck of cards is as follows;

Hearts = 13

Clubs = 13

Diamonds = 13

Spades = 13

These add up to a total of 52 cards. Since a deck only has 52 cards, these make up all the cards in the deck.

Since the probability of taking out a card from these four suits is going to be as follows:

Probability = number of ways we can take out a corresponding suit card / total number of cards

Probability = 52 / 52

Probability = 1

Thus, we can see that the probability of taking out a card belonging to one of the four suits (heart,diamond,club,spade) is 1.
