Answer:

The probability of drawing an odd number is 8/11

or about 0.727 (72.7%)

Explanation:

The numbers are, 5 8 1 5 3 4 9 9 1 3 2

There are a total of 11 numbers (or cards)

Now, we randomly draw from these 11 possibilities,

now, there are 2 fives, 1 eights, 2 ones, 2 threes, 1 fours, 2 nines, and 1 twos

where, 5, 1, 3, and 9 are the odd numbers

and 8, 4, and 2 are the even numbers

so, in the deck, there are a total of,

2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 8 odd numbers

and the probability of drawing an odd number is then,

P= 8/11

Where we divide the odd number of cards by the total number of cards
