The document contains the solutions to two probability questions involving cards and dice. For the first question, the probabilities of selecting a club card, jack card, ace card, and pictured card from a standard 52-card deck are calculated as 1/4, 1/13, 1/13, and 3/10 respectively. The second question involves rolling two dice. Part (i) calculates the probability of rolling a sum of 8 or 11 as 7/36. Part (ii) calculates the probability of rolling a prime number sum as 15/36.

Q.NO.1. What is the Probability of selecting the following cards?

i) Club card ii) Jack card iii) Ace card iv) Pictured card

a) club card

The favorable outcomes of a jack is 13 out of 52 cards.

Therefore, probability of getting a jack:

P.B = Number of favourable outcomes / Total number of possible outcome


= 13/52

=¼

P.B = 0.25

b) jack card

The favourable outcomes of a jack is 4 out of 52 cards.

Therefore, probability of getting a jack:

P.B = Number of favourable outcomes / Total number of possible outcome

= 4/52

= 1/13

P.B = 0.07

c) ace card

The favourable outcomes of a jack is 4 out of 52 cards.

Therefore, probability of getting a jack:

P.B = Number of favourable outcomes / Total number of possible outcome

= 4/52

= 1/13

P.B = 0.07

d) picture card

The favourable outcomes of a jack is 16 out of 52 cards.

Therefore, probability of getting a jack:

P.B = Number of favourable outcomes / Total number of possible outcome

= 16/52

1
P.B = 0.30

Q.NO.2: Find the probability of (i) sum is 8 or 11 (ii) sum is prime number

If two dice are rolled.

ANS:

Simple Spacing of 2 dice is

S= {(1,1)(1,2)(1,3) (1,4) (1,5) (1,6,) (2,1)(2,2)(2,3)(2,4)(2,5)(2,6)(3,1)(3,2)(3,3)(3,4)(3,5)(3,6)(4,1)


(4,2)(4,3)(4,4)(4,5)(4,6)(5,1)(5,2)(5,3)(5,4)(5,5) (5,6)(6,1)(6,2) (6,3)(6,4)(6,5)(6,6)}

(i) :

Sum is 8 or 11

Let 0 = sum is 8 or 11

S= {(2,6)(3,5)(4,4)(5,3)(6,2)(5,6) (6,5)

Probability: favourable Outcome/ Total outcome

=7/36

Probability =0.19

(ii):

Sum is prime NO

Let N=Sum is prime NO

N= {(1,1)(1,2)(1,4) (1,6,) (2,1)(2,3)(2,5)(2,6)(3,2)(3,4)(4,1)(4,3)(5,2)(5,6)(6,1)(6,5)}

Probability: favourable Outcome/ Total outcome

=15/36

Probability =0.416
