Problem 116
Consider the experiment of selecting a card from an ordinary deck of 52 playing cards and determine the probability of the stated event.
A card that is not a king and not a spade is drawn.
Solution
Total number of kings are = 4
Spade card are = 13
Total card including spade and kings = (13 + 4) – 1 = 16
Total favorable cases are = 52 – 16 = 36
Total possible cases are = 52
P(not king and not spade) =
