From a deck of cards (52 cards, no jokers) Henry pulled a card from the deck and got an 8. What was the probability of that event?

There are 4 eights in a deck of cards so it would be 4 out of 52 or 4/52 = 1 out of 13

Hope this helps :)

there are 4 of each card, meaning, 4 jacks, 4 kings, 4 of each number, etc


proabiility=desired otucomes/total possible outcomes

4 8's and 52 total cards

4/52=1/13 probablity
