A card is drawn from a pack of 52 cards. The probability of getting a queen of club or a king of heart is

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Total number of cases = 6*6 = 36

Favourable cases = [(1,2),(1,4),(1,6),(2,1),(2,2),(2,3),(2,4),(2,5),(2,6),(3,2),(3,4),(3,6),(4,1),(4,2),(4,3),(4,4),(4,5),(4,6),(5,2),(5,4),(5,6),(6,1),(6,2),(6,3),(6,4),(6,5),(6,6)] = 27

So Probability = 27/36 = 3/4

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Total cases = [H,T] - 2
Favourable cases = [H] -1
So probability of getting head = 1/2

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Number greater than 5 is 6, so only 1 number
Total cases of dice = [1,2,3,4,5,6]

So probability = 1/6

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Total number of cases = 52
Favourable cases = 2

Probability = 2/56 = 1/26

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Two cards are drawn together from a pack of 52 cards. The probability that one is a spade and one is a heart, is:

Let sample space be S
\begin{aligned}
\text{then, n(S) = }^{52} C _2 \\
=> \frac{52 \times 51}{ 2 \times 1} = 1326 \\
\text {let E be event of getting 1 spade and 1 heart} \\
\text{So, n(E) = ways of getting 1 spade or 1 heart out of 13} \\
= ^{13}C_1 \times ^{13}C_1 \\
= 13 \times 13 \\
= 169 \\
\text{So, p(E) = }\frac{n(E)}{n(S)} \\
= \frac{169}{1326} = \frac{13}{102}
\end{aligned}
