Probability

Question

A card is selected at random from a standard deck of playing cards.

Compute the probability that the card is a 7.

Answer 1

probability is a number between 0 and 1, inclusive, that indicates the likelihood that an event will occur

P(Event)=the number of ways that an event can occur/the total number of possible equally likely outcomes

P(7)=4/52=1/13 because there are 4 sevens and 52 cards
