You are dealt one card from a 52 deck of cards what is the probability of being an ace?
Probability = Chance of Success / Total Chances (Chance of Success + Chance of Failure) There are 4 aces in a 52 card deck and 48 cards that are not aces. Probability of being dealt an ace = 4 / (4 + 48) = 4/52 = .0769 or about 7.7 percent
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 you will be dealt 2 aces from a standard 52-card deck?
The probability is 4/52 for the first ace and 3/51 for the second. So the probability of 2 aces is 4/52 x 3/51 = 1/221
What is the probability of drawing an ace or a diamond?
In a standard 52 card deck, the probability of drawing an ace is 1/13, and the probability of drawing a diamond is 1/4. The probability of drawing both an ace and a diamond is 1/52.Thus the probability of drawing an ace or a diamond is1/13 + 1/4 - 1/52 = 4/13 or about .308.
What is the probability of picking a red ace out of a standard deck of cards?
The probability of pick a red ace out of a standard deck of cards would be 1/26 because there are two read aces, the ace of diamonds and the ace of hearts.
