Solution : There are 26 cards of Red Suit

Probability Questions

Probability Tutorial

(b) An honour card of Black suit ?

Solution : There are 16 honour cards out of which 8 are of Black suit and 8 are of Red Suit. So n(E) = 8 , n(S)=52

Probability Theory

(c) A card is drawn and its number is multiple of 2

Solution : E = 4 (2)'s + 4 (4)'s + 4 (6)'s + 4 (8)'s + 4 (10)'s

So, n(E) = 20, n (S) = 52

(d) A king or a queen ?

Solution : There are 4 kings and 4 Queens in 52 cards

(e) A king of black suit ?

Solution : There are 2 kings in black suit ( King of Spade and King of Club )

Probability questions
Ex. A bag contains 4 red, 3 yellow and 5 green balls. 3 balls are drawn randomly. What is the probability that balls drawn contain

Ex. A bag contains 4 Red balls and 5 Green balls. Two balls are drawn at random. Find the probability that they are of the same colour ?

Solution : Let S be the sample space and E be the event, so

Probability tutorial

n(E) = ( Number of ways of drawing 2 balls of Red ) OR ( Number of ways of drawing 2 balls of Green )

Ex. A three-digit number is formed with the digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 at random. What is probability that number formed is

(a) Divisible by 2

Solution : From the given digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 numbers formed is :

Ex. Not divisible by 2 ?

Solution : P (Not divisible by 2 ) = 1 - P (Divisible by 2 )

Ex. Divisible by 5 ?

Solution : A number ends with 5, 0 then the number will be divisible by 5
Here only 5 is present, end place will be fixed by 5 so,

Probabilty questions
Ex. The letters of the word CASTIGATION is arranged in different ways randomly. What is the chance that vowels occupy the even places ?

Solution : Vowels are A I A I O,

 C   A   S   T   I   G   A   T   I   O   N
(O)(E)(O)(E)(O)(E)(O)(E)(O)(E)(O)

So there are 5 even places in which five vowels can be arranged and in rest of 6 places 6 constants can be arranged as follows :
