QUESTION:

Selecting Cards Five cards are drawn from an ordinary deck without replacement. Find the probability of getting

a. All red cards

b. All diamonds

c. All aces

ANSWER:

Solution:

Step 1 of 3:

Given, five cards are drawn from an ordinary deck without replacement.

  1. The claim is to find the probability of getting all red cards.

In a deck, we will be having 52 cards, in that 26 red colored and 26 black colored.

We have to draw 5 red cards without replacement

Then = 0.02531

Hence, the probability of getting all red cards is 0.02531.
