Solution

Total number of cards $= 49$
Total number of outcomes $= 49$
Odd number
Favourable outcomes $1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29, 31, 33, 35, 37, 39, 41, 43, 45, 47, 49$
Number of favourable outcomes $= 25$
Probability $(E) = \frac{N o . o f f a v o u r a b l e o u t c o m e s}{T o t a l n u m b e r o f o u t c o m e s}$
$= \frac{25}{49}$
