Question

If you drew a card from a standard deck of 52 playing cards and then replaced it, and if you repeated this 300 times, about how many times would you expect to draw any card below 6.

Answer 1

To determine how many times you would expect to draw any card below 6 when drawing a card from a standard deck and replacing it 300 times, calculate the probability and multiply by the number of draws.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine how many times you would expect to draw any card below 6 when drawing a card from a standard deck of 52 playing cards and replacing it 300 times, you need to calculate the probability of drawing a card below 6 in a single draw and multiply it by the number of times you draw the card.

There are 20 cards below 6 in a deck (4 each of 2, 3, 4, and 5). So, the probability of drawing a card below 6 in a single draw is 20/52 = 5/13.

Therefore, the expected number of times you would draw any card below 6 when repeating this process 300 times is (5/13) x 300 = 115.38 times (approximately).
