(a) A king is drawn

(b) The card drawn is a king or a queen.


(c) The card drawn is a diamond.


(d) The card drawn is a black card.

Solution

Dear Student Thank you for using Chegg !! a) Drawing a king Total No of Kings = 4 Total no of cards = 52 Probability = 4/52 = 1/13 Answer b) Card drawn is king or queen Total Number of Queen = 4 Total No of Kings = 4 Total no of cards = 52 Probability = 8/52 = 4/13 Answer c) Card drawn is diamond Total No of diamonds = 13 Total no of cards = 52 Probability = 13/52 = 1/4 Answer d) Card drawn is black Total No of Black Cards = 26 Total no of cards = 52 Probability = 26/52 = 1/2 Answer
