Answer:

Because the probability that each number will be selected is not equal, the group of cards is not fair.

Given

From the attachments, the cards are:

`Cards: [1]\ [3]\ [5]\ [1]\ [5]\ [5]\ [3]\ [2]\ [5]\ [5]`

Fill in the gaps

The question asks if the game is fair or not.

So, first, we need to get the frequency of each card number.

This is shown below:

`Cards\ \ Frequency`

`1`
`2`

`2`
`1`

`3`
`2`

`5`
`5`

`Total`
`10`

From the above frequency table, each card do not have the same frequency.

This implies that the probability of selecting each card is not equal (i.e. not the same).

Hence, it is not fair.
