Question

A card is randomly selected from a standard
deck of playing cards. Find the probability
that it is a face card, given that a black card
is drawn.

Answer 1

Answer:

3 / 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

There are 52 cards in a deck with half being red and half being black. The question ask for when a black card is drawn so we divide the total by 2

52/ 2 = 26

There are 6 black face cards in a deck so to get the probability one will be drawn we put how many there are over the total amount

6/26 we can simplify this

3 / 13

The answer is 3 / 13

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

3/13

Step-by-step explanation:

In a standard 52-card deck, there are 26 black cards and 26 red cards. Of the 26 black cards, 13 are spades and 13 are clubs. Each suit has 3 face cards, Jack, Queen, and King. Therefore, there are 6 black face cards out of a total of 26 black cards.

p(face given black) = 6/26 = 3/13
