Answer: a) \dfrac{1}{13}

b)\dfrac{2}{13}

c) \dfrac{1}{4}

d) \dfrac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for probability =\dfrac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}

The total number of cards in a deck = 52

a) Number of cards having queen =4

Then the probability that a queen is drawn =\dfrac{\text{No. of cards having queen}}{\text{Total cards}}

=\dfrac{4}{52}=\dfrac{1}{13}

c) Number of cards having King= 4

Then , the number of cards having a queen or king =4+4=8

Then the probability that a king or queen is drawn =\dfrac{\text{No. of cards having king or a queen}}{\text{Total cards}}

=\dfrac{8}{52}=\dfrac{2}{13}

c) Number of cards having heart = 13

Then the probability that a heart is drawn =\dfrac{\text{No. of cards having heart}}{\text{Total cards}}

=\dfrac{13}{52}=\dfrac{1}{4}

d) Number of red cards = 26

Then the probability that a red card is drawn =\dfrac{\text{No. of red cards}}{\text{Total cards}}

=\dfrac{26}{52}=\dfrac{1}{2}

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

13÷ 23

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the odds of player winning is shown below;

For $5 it is 40%

And, for $100 it is 25%

so for total it is

= 40% + 25%

= 65%

And, the total percentage is 100%

So, the odds in favor is

65:100

13:20

Now for winning it would be 13÷ 23
