Question

a card is chosen from a standard deck, then a month of the year is chosen. find the probability of getting a face card and june​

Answer 1

Probability of chossing a face card and the month of june = 0.019

Explanation:

Let A be the event that a face card is chosen from a deck of 52 cards

And

B be the event that a month is being chosen from 12 months of an year

So,

n(S)for A=52

n(S)for B=12

As a deck of card has total of 12 face cards so

P(A)=12/52

=3/13

P(B)=1/12

As both the events are independent, the probability of A and B is the product of both events’ probabilities.

P(A and B)= P(A)*P(B)

=3/13*1/12

=3/156

=0.019
