Question

A single card is drawn from a standard deck of 52 cards. What is the probability the card is a four OR a five?State your answer as a fraction.

Answer 1

Given:

$n(S)=52$

Let A be the event of getting the card four or five.

$n(A)=8$$P(A)=\frac{n(A)}{n(S)}$$P(A)=\frac{8}{52}$$P(A)=\frac{2}{13}$
