What is the combined probability of being dealt a face card and then a three as the second card from a standard 52 card deck?
Counting Aces as a face card, the answer is 0.0241 If Aces are not considered face cards, then the answer is 0.0181
A deck of ordinary cards is shuffled and 13 cards are dealt. What is the probability that the last card dealt is an ace?
The odds of any card pulled from an ordinary deck of 52 cards being an Ace is 4 in 52 (4 aces in a deck of 52). This can be reduced to a 1 in 13 chance of any random card pulled from the deck being an Ace (or any other specific value, for that matter). That 13th last card dealt in a hand is no different than picking a random card out of the pack, regardless of what cards you deal before (face down or blindfolded or even face up, it doesn't matter). A more interesting question would be "what would the probability be of ANY of those 13 cards being an Ace?" Any takers?
What is the probability to get face cards if a card is drawn from a pack of 52?
Counting Aces as face cards, the probability is 16/52 or 4/13.
Three cards are drawn in succession and without replacement from a deck of 52 cards what is the probability that they are all face cards?
There are 12 face cards in a standard deck of 52 cards. The odds of the first card being a face card is 12/52. If the first card drawn is a face card then there are 11 face cards remaining in the deck of 51 cards. The odds of a second draw of a face card is then 11/51. If both the first two cards drawn were face cards then the deck has 10 face cards in 50 total card. The odds of the third card also being a face card is 10/50. The total probability is (12/52)*(11/51)*(10/50) = 0.009954751 or just under one percent of the time.
What is the probability of selecting a face card in a deck of 52 cards?
There are 12 face cards in a standard deck of 52 cards; the jacks, queens, and kings of spades, diamonds, clubs, and hearts. The probability, then, of drawing a face card is 12 in 52, or 3 in 13, or about 0.2308.
