The probability of drawing a jack and a king in that order from a standard deck is: P(J,K)

=

(4/52)∙(4/51) =

0.006033... ~ 0.006 ~ 0.6%

The probability of drawing a jack and a king in any order is twice the above:

P((J,K)

or (K,J)) =

0.0112066... ~ 0.011

~ 1.1%

If you draw one card from a normal deck of cards what is the probability of drawing a jack queen or king?

Probability of Jack being drawn is 4/52 since there are 4 Jacks and 52 cards in the deck. Also, the probability of drawing a Queen and King is 4/52. So, if you draw one card from a normal deck of cards the probability of drawing a jack or queen or king is 4/52 + 4/52 + 4/52 = 12/52 or 3/13 or 0.2308.


What is the probability of drawing a king and a diamond from a deck of playing cards?

The probability of drawing a king is 4:52The probability of drawing a diamond is 13:52 (or 1:4)The probability of drawing a king (0.07692...) then replacing that king into the deck then drawing a diamond is 0.019230769.If you leave the king out, the probability will be slightly greater (4/52) * (13/51)Unless the king you left out of the deck was a king of diamonds, in which case, the probability would be (4/52) * (12/51)


What is the probability of drawing either a Jack or a 5 from a deck of cards?
