Question

I don't really understand the question so can someone help me answer the question please?​

Answer 1

Answer:

1/ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

If each of the cards is turned over, the probability of picking up a card of one type P(E) becomes equal to:

=> P(E) = number of cards of the required type/ total number of cards

● Total number of spades( ♤ ) = 3

{the queen, one ace and the nine are all spades}

● Total number of cards = 6

Probability of drawing a spade= 3/ 6

= 1/ 2

● Total number of "7" = 1

● Total number of cards = 6

Probability of drawing a 7

= 1/ 6

Now, what's asked is the difference in the probabilities of drawing a spade and a seven.

= 1/ 2 - 1/ 6

= 3/ 6 - 1/ 6

= 2/ 6

= 1/ 3

Hence, 1/ 3 of a greater chance of drawing a spade over a 7.
