The Expected value of a draw from the given question is; A; 0.77

We are told the face cards are K, Q, J. This means that there are 3 face cards for each of the 4 suits.

Since you earn 10 points for each face card, it means that;

total possible gain = 10 × 3 × 4 = 120

In a deck of cards, there are a total of 52 cards.

This means that;

Number of cards that are not K, Q or J = 52 - (4 × 3) = 40

Since 2 points are lost for drawing any of this 40 cards, then;

Total possible loss = 40 × 2 = 80

Expected gain = 120 - 80

Expected gain = 40

Expected value of a draw = 40/52

Expected value of a draw = 0.77

22 is 44% of what number?
Vladimir79 [104]
So 22 is 44% of something
22=44% of x
'of' means multiply
22=44% times x
percent means parts out of 100
44%=44/100
22=44/100 times x
22=44x/100
multiply boht sides by 100
2200=44x
divide both sides by 44
50=x
the number is 50
