Question

In a stack of 10 cards, 5 are red and 5 are blue. The whole deck of 10 cards is shuffled and a card is picked at random. Then the probaility of having a red card and the probaility of having a blue card are:

• A. Certain event
• B. Impossible event
• C. Equally Likely
• D. Not equal

Answer 1

The correct option is C Equally Likely

Clearly $P\left(Red\right)=P\left(Blue\right)=\frac{5}{10}=\frac{1}{2}$
Hence, they are equally probable.
