Answers (1)

(i) Answer. [10/49]
Solution. Probability; Probability means possibility. It is a branch of mathematics that deals with the occurrence of a random event. The value is expressed from zero to one
Total cards = 52 – 3 = 49        (  three cards are removed)
Total club = 13 – 3 = 10          (  3 club cards are removed)
favourable cases = 10
Probability = \frac{Number\, of\, favourable\ cases }{Total\, number\, of\, cases}
Probability of getting a club = \frac{10}{49}

(ii) Answer. [1/49]
Solution. Probability; Probability means possibility. It is a branch of mathematics that deals with the occurrence of a random event. The value is expressed from zero to one
Total cards = 52 – 3 = 49        (  three cards are removed)
10 of heart = 1
favourable cases = 1
Probability = \frac{Number\, of\, favourable\ cases }{Total\, number\, of\, cases}
Probability of getting a heart = \frac{1}{49}
