Question

1) A card is drawn from a standard deck of playing cards. What is the probability that the card is either a Queen, a King or an Ace? (Express your answer as a percent to the nearest tenth. Please include the % symbol)

2) If a fair coin is flipped twice and a standard 6 sided die is rolled twice, what is the likelihood of getting two 'heads' on the coin and a '6' on the die twice?

Express your answer as a decimal rounded to the ten - thousandths place.

3) When a standard pair of six sided dice are rolled, what is the probability of getting a 6?

(Express your answer as a decimal rounded to the thousandsth place.)

Explanation / Answer

3) A pair of six sided dice are rolled

Total cases in sample space=36

To get 6, possible cases are (1,5), (2,4), (3,3), (4,2), (5,1) = 5

Probability of getting 6 = 5/36 =0.1389

1) A card is drawn from a deck of 52 cards

No. of queens = 4

no.of kings = 4

no.of aces =4

Probability that the card is either Queen, king or an ace = 4+4+4 / 52 = 12/52 =0.2307

Probability = 23.07 %
