One card is drawn from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards. Find the probability of getting:
(i) a king of red colour.
(ii)a face card.
(iii) a red face card.
(iv) the jack of hearts
(v) a spade

Answer 1

Here, total number of possible outcomes = 52

(i) As we know that there are two suits of red card, i.e, diamond and heart and each suit contain one king.

(ii) As we know that king, queens, and jacks are called face cards. Therefore, there are 12 face cards.

(iii) As we know there are two suits of red cards, i.e., diamond and heart and each suit contains 3 face cards.
