Question

Given that a card dealer hands you a spade, what is the probability that it is the Jack of Spades?

Answer 1

Since there are only 13 spades in a deck of cards and the can only be 1 jack of spade so then the probability would be 1:13 or 1/13 or 1 to 13

Answer 2

There are 52 cards in a deck, but only 13 spades. In those 13 cards, there is only 1 Jack of Spades. The probability of being handed the Jack of Spades out of only Spades is 1 out of 13. I hope this helps!
