Question

A deck of cards contains red cards numbered 1,2,3,4,5, blue cards numbered 1,2 and green cards numbered 1,2,3,4,5,6. If a single card is picked at random, what is the probability that the card is red

Answer 1

the probability is 38,46%

Explanation:

If all decks are put together and shuffled , then card is picked at random regardless of the number, then the probability that the card is red is

probability = number of red cards / total number of cards = 5/(5+2+6) = 5/13=0.3846= 38,46%
