Question

A pack of cards is shuffled and a card is chosen at random.

What is the probability of getting a black card?

Answer 1

`(1)/(2)`

Explanation:

Probability:

Number of cards = 52

Number of black cards = 13 (club) + 13 (spade)

= 26

`\sf P(\text{getting a black card})=(26)/(52)`

`\sf =(1)/(2)`
