The probability of getting a spade out of a full deck is 13/52 = 1/4. Now, to get exactly one spade you have the following possibilities: a. Spade first, then others: 13/52*39/51*38/50 b. Other, then Spade, then other: 39/52*13/51*38/50 c. Other, then other, then spade: 39/52*38/51*13/50. Sum them up, and you get 3*13*39*38/(52*51*50) = 0.4385 To understand this best, please draw a tree.
Not including 4 would be 2/6 chance. Including 4 would be 3/6 chance, or 50%. 3/6 can also be read as 1/2 or 2/4.
Presuming a standard 52 card deck, the chance of drawing the 6 of hearts (or any specific card for that matter) is 1/52.
Twelve and eleven hundredths in standard form is 1.211 × 101The standard notation would be 12.11
The fact that 6% said they would cheat if they had a chance does not mean that 6% would actually cheat. Even if I were determined to cheat, I would not admit my intention in a survey.
