Question

One Card is drawn from a deck of$52$. What is the probability that it is a diamond?

Answer 1

In a pack of cards, there are total$52$cards, among which$13$are cards of diamond.

Let $\text{E}$ denotes the event of getting a card of diamond.

No. of diamond cards =$13$

$\text{n(E) = 13}$

$\text{P(getting a diamond card) =}\frac{\text{no of favourable outcomes, n(E)}}{\text{total no of possible outcomes of event, n(S)}}$

$$\begin{gathered} =\frac{13}{52} \\ =\frac{1}{4} \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the probability of getting a diamond card from a pack of cards is$\frac{1}{4}.$
