You are playing a card game with a full deck of 52 cards. You win if you draw a red card that is a multiple of 5. What are your chances of winning on your first draw?

I believe it it 8/52 because there are 2 multpiple of ten in each suits and there are 4 types of suits. Will someone please verify this. All you will have to do now is simplify the answer.

half of the cards are red, there are four fives, four tens.

Pr=(1/2)(8/52)

o woops i forgot to incorpate that it was just red so thanks for correcting me bobpursley

Hailey Has 11 shelves of cards she has 963 in all how much does she have ? I keep getting 23 Reminder 5!! I am not bad at math I am great at it mostly division I don't know what to do!!!

To determine your chances of winning on the first draw, we need to find the number of favorable outcomes (winning cards) and the number of possible outcomes (total number of cards).

First, let's calculate the number of favorable outcomes. In a deck of 52 cards, half of them (26 cards) are red. However, not all red cards are multiples of 5.

There are 13 multiples of 5 in the deck: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, and 65 (we exclude 55 and 60 because they are not present in a standard deck).

So, the number of favorable outcomes is 13.

Next, let's find the number of possible outcomes. In a full deck of 52 cards, any of the cards could be drawn, so the number of possible outcomes is 52.

To calculate the chances of winning on the first draw, divide the number of favorable outcomes by the number of possible outcomes and multiply by 100% to get the probability:

(13 / 52) * 100% = 25%

Therefore, your chances of winning on your first draw are 25%.
