The probability of drawing a card other than an Ace, in a standard deck of 52 cards, is 48 in 52, or 12 in 13, or about 0.923.

Remember: Probability is simply the number of expected events divided by the number of possible events. In this case, you can count the other events (48 in 52) or you can subtract the results of the negative events (4 in 52) from 1, i.e. 1-(4/52) or 1-(1/13) is still about 0.923.

What is the probability of drawing a card other than 10 in a standard 52 card deck?

If one card is drawn randomly from a well shuffled deck, the answer is 48/52 or 12/13.


When a card is drawn what is the probability of getting A jack A4 a card less than 6?

There are 4 jacks in a pack of cards. There are 52 cards in a deck, so the probability of getting a jack is 4/52. This can be simplified to 1/13. There are also four 4s in a deck, so the probability of drawing a 4 is also 1/13. The probability of drawing a card less than six is the probabilities for drawing a 5, a 4, a 3, a 2, and an ace all added up. This is 5/13.


What is the probability of drawing numbers more than 5?

It depends on the set of numbers you are drawing from.


What is the probability of drawing a face card or a queen from a 52 card deck?

Since the probability of both events is not mutally exlcusive (you could draw both at the same time), the probability is: P(queen)+P(face)-P(both) (4/52)+(12/52)-(4/52) 12/52, which is a bit less than 0.25


What is the probability of picking an ace and a king from a pack of playing cards?

The absolute probability is even, given one draw. However, statistically, the chance of drawing an ace and a king as two cards at random is 1: 81.25Chance of drawing first card is either an ace or a king is 8: 52 (1 in 6.5).Now the remaining other card (ace or king) is 4 in 51 (1 in 12.5)*In Blackjack, the drawing of any face card or 10 improves the odds of a natural blackjack using only one deck to 1: 20.8 but the show used holds more than one deck.
