What is the probability

Question

a card is drawn at random from a well shuffled deck of 52 cards. find the probability of drawing a three, four, five, six, or seven.

which method is appropriate

subjective

relative

theoretical

the probability of drawing a three, four, five, six, or seven is what? Type integer or simplified fraction

Answer 1

The theoretical method is appropriate because we know the exact number of cards and exact number of 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7s so all the probabilities needed to answered the question are known exactly.

There are

20 cards (4 of each of 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7) that would be success out of 52

20/52

Simplify

Answer: 5/13
