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.

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.

What is the probability of drawing two hearts from a standard pack of cards is 3 divided 51 what is the probability that the two cards drawn are not both hearts?

The probability of drawing a heart from a fair deck is 1 in 4. If the card is replaced then the probability is again 1 in 4. The probability of drawing a card other than a heart is 3 in 4. Once again if the card is replaced then the probability remains 3 in 4

What is the probability of drawing a card less than 6 from a deck of cards?

Counting Ace as less than 6, then there are 20 cards out of 52 less than 6, for a probability 5/13. Counting Ace as high with 2 being the lowest card, there are 16 cards less than 6 for a probability of 4/13.


What is the probablity of drawing a red card or a queen?

If you draw more than 24 cards from a standard pack, without replacement, the probability is 1. That is, it is a certainty. The probability of the outcome for a single, randomly drawn card from a standard pack, is 7/13.

What is the probability of drawing the ace of hearts first than the ace of diamonds?

The probability of drawing the Ace of Hearts from a standard deck of 52 cards is 1 in 52. The probability of then drawing the Ace of Diamonds is then 1 in 51. Multiply these two probabilities together, and you get 1 in 2652, or about 0.0003771.The probability of drawing the ace of hearts from a deck before drawing the ace of diamonds, ignoring any other cards, is 1/2.Note: Both of these answers are correct. It depends on your point of view. They've been left so that you, dear reader, can think about it.

What are the odds against drawing a spade greater than 3 and less than 9?

The probability of drawing a 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 of spades is 5 in 52. The probability of not drawing a 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 of spades, therefore, is (52-5) in 52, or 47 in 52, or about 0.9038.


If you have 15 cards with different shapes If the first card you draw is a square and the probability is 1 in 5 What is the probability of next card something other than a square?

1 in 5 is a square so there are 3 squares and 12 non-squares. If the square is not replaced, and the next card is drawn at random the probability of a non-square is 12/14.
