Answer 1

Given:

A deck of 52 playing cards is given.

Required:

Probability of selecting a number card, a red card and an ace.

Answer:

There are 40 number cards.

Therefore, probability of selecting a number card=

`(1)/(40)`

There are 26 red cards.

Therefore, probability of selecting a red card=

`(1)/(26)`

The probability of selecting an ace =

`(1)/(52)`

Final Answer:

The Probabilities of selecting a number card, a red card and an ace are,

`(1)/(40),(1)/(26),(1)/(52)`
