From a pack of 52 playing cards Jacks, queens, Kings and aces of red colour are removed. From the remaining, a card is drawn at random. Find the probability that the card drawn is
(i) a black queen
(ii) a red card
(iii) a black jack
(iv) a picture card (Jacks, queens and Kings are picture cards).
Given: The Kings, Queens, Aces and Jacks of red color are removed from a deck of 52 playing cards and the remaining cards are shuffled and a card is drawn at random from the remaining cards
TO FIND: Probability of getting a card of
(i) A black queen
(ii) A red card
(iii) A black jack
(iv) A picture card
After removing the kings, queens, aces and the jacks of red color from the pack of 52 playing cards
Total number of cards left: ![]()
(i) Cards which are black queen is 2
We know that PROBABILITY = ![]()
Hence probability of getting a black queen = ![]()
(ii) Cards which are red are from 2 suits
Total number of red cards is ![]()
From this the kings, queens, aces and jacks of red color are taken out.
Hence total number of red cards left is ![]()
We know that PROBABILITY = ![]()
Hence probability of getting a red card is ![]()
(iii) Cards which are black jack are from 2 suits
Total number of black jack is ![]()
We know that PROBABILITY = ![]()
Hence probability of getting a black jack card ![]()
(iv) Cards which are picture cared are from 4 suits
Total number of picture cards is ![]()
From this the kings, queens, and jacks of red color are taken out.
Hence total number of picture card left is ![]()
We know that PROBABILITY = ![]()
Hence probability of getting an picture card = ![]()
