A card is drawn at random from a standard deck of cards. Find the probability of getting the following (assume the drawn card is put back into the deck after each draw):
a. Black card
b. Heart card
c. King card
There are 52 cards in a standard deck.
a. There are 26 black cards (13 spades and 13 clubs) out of 52 total cards. So the probability of drawing a black card is 26/52 = 1/2.
b. There are 13 heart cards out of 52 total cards. So the probability of drawing a heart card is 13/52 = 1/4.
c. There are 4 king cards (King of hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades) out of 52 total cards. So the probability of drawing a king card is 4/52 = 1/13.
