A pack of cards contains 4 aces, 4 kings, 4 queens and 4 jacks. -Maths 9th

1 Answer

Answer :

(d) \(rac{9}{20}\)Let S be the sample space for drawing 2 cards out of 4 aces, 4 kings, 4 queens and 4 jacks i.e, 16 cards. Then n(S) = 16C2 P(Drawing at least one ace) = 1 – P(Drawing no ace) Let E : Event of drawing no aces in the 2 drawn cards ⇒ n(E) = 12C2(Cards leaving aces = 16 – 4 – 12)∴ P(E) = \(rac{n(E)}{n(S)}\) = \(rac{^{12}C_2}{^{16}C_2}\) = \(rac{12 imes11}{16 imes15}\) = \(rac{11}{20}\)∴ P(drawing at least one ace) = 1 - \(rac{11}{20}\) = \(rac{9}{20}\) .
