All the black face cards are removed from a pack of 52 playing cards. The remaining cards are well shuffled and then a card is drawn at random. Find the probability of getting a:

(i) face card (ii) red card


(iii) black card (iv) king

Total numbers of cards = 52


Black face cards = 6


Remaining cards = 52 – 6 = 46


We know that the theoretical (classical) probability of an event E, written as P (E), is defined as P (E) = Number of outcomes favorable to E / Number of all possible outcomes of the experiment


(i) P (Face card) =


(ii) P (Red card) =


(iii) P (Black card) =


(iv) P (King) =
