Question

Find the odds against drawing a spade greater than 4 and less than 7

Answer 1

Hello!

Assuming that there are no jokers, we have a number out of 52. First of all there are only two cards in the deck that are spades that are greater than four and less than 7; the 5 and 6 of spades. This gives us the probability below.


`(2)/(52) = (1)/(26)`, which is about 3.8%.

I hope this helps!
