Question

A set of cards is numbered 1,2,3....24.

suppose you pick a card at random without looking.find the probability of each event.Write as a fraction in simplest form.
1.p(5) 2.p(6or17) 3.p(6 or 17) 4.p(not equal to 15) 5.p(not a factor of 6) 6.p(odd number) ...?

Answer 1

Stack of cards = 52.
Set whatever number over 52. That's your fraction. so if you pull a 5 its 5/52. that's your probability. And you take how many odd numbers you have in a deck, and set that over 52. Same thing. Hope this helps.
