What Is The Probability Of Drawing A 5 From A Regular Deck Of 52 Cards?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    The total number of cards in an ordinary deck is 52. So, the size of sample space is 52.

    n(S) = 52

    Let A be the event that the card selected card is 5. There are four cards of 5 present in an ordinary deck of 52.

    n(A) = 4

    The probability of selection of card 5 is;

    p(A) = n(A)/ n(S)

    P(A) = 4 / 52

    P(A) = 1/13
