Question

If you have a new deck of shuffled cards, what is the probability you will choose a red card? (52 cards, no jokers)

Answer 1

`P("choosing red card")=1/2`

Explanation:

The total number of cards `=52`

The no. of red cards `=26`

`P("red card")= "No.of red cards"/"Total no.of cards"`

So

`P("red card")=26/52`

`P("red card")=1/2`
