Best answer

Total number of playing cards = 52

∴ n(S) = 52

Total number of king cards = 4

Total number of heart cards = 13

Total number of red cards = 13 + 13 = 26

∴ Favourable outcomes = 4 + 13 + 26 – 13 – 2 = 28

[Here, we subtract 13 and 2 cards because already these cards come in king cards and heart cards]

We know that,

Probability = \(\frac{\text{Number of favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}\)

\(\therefore \) Required Probability = \(\frac{28}{52}\)

\(= \frac 7{13}\)

Number of cards = 52, n(S) = 52

4 king + 13 heart + 26 red – 13 – 2 = 28 = n{E)

.’. Required probability = 28/52 = 7/13
