The odds against drawing a 10 out of a 52 card deck are 12:1.
Odd numbers are any number with 1,3,5,7,9 at the end of them i.e 135 but odds alone is used to represent chances of an event to happen against chances of not to happen, it is in relation to probability but it is not the same. For example, the probability when you throw two dices to obtain 1 and 1 is 1/36 but the odds are represented as 1 against 35, usually represented as 1 : 35.
At my own expense, I have leased time from the local Cray lab and submitted the problem to the operators there.They report that yes, against all odds and appearances, 13.65 is indeed greater than 2.398.
If the odds are 9 to 7, the chance of winning is 43.75%
Answer: 17 to 1 Out of 36 possibilities for two dice, a total of three can be made by 1 + 2 OR 2 +1 That makes the chances FOR equal to 1/36 plus 1/36, or 2/36 or 1 in 18 throws. The odds against are therefore 17 to 1. "On the average," you will 17 non-threes for each three.
