Question

A card is drawn from a standard deck and a letter is chosen from the word incredible. What is the probability of drawing a king then getting an i?

Answer 1

There is a 4/52 chance of getting a king, because there are 52 cards in a deck, and 4 kings in each. And there is a 2/10 (1/5) chance of getting an i, because there are 2 i's in the word "incredible", and 10 letters (so simplifying that, you would get 1/5).

Answer 2

Explanation:

A card is drawn from a standard deck. A standard deck of cards has 52 cards. Its been asked if it is a king. There are 4 kings in a deck, so probability is =
`(4)/(52)` or
`(1)/(13)`

Simultaneously, a word is chosen from 'incredible' that has 10 letters. We have been asked if the letter is 'i'. In the given word, we have 2 'i's. So, probability is
`(2)/(10)` or
`(1)/(5)`
