What are the odds in favor of drawing a spade and a heart?
there are 13 spades, and 13 hearts. If you draw two consective cards, without replacement, then
pr(spade,heart)=13/52 * 13/51
think on that.
Is the answer 13/50?
I am still confused on this one, can someone please help?
To find the odds in favor of drawing a spade and a heart, you'll need some information about the number of spades, hearts, and total cards in the deck. Make sure that the deck you are using contains 52 cards, including 13 spades and 13 hearts.
Step 1: Determine the number of favorable outcomes.
To draw a spade and a heart, you need to calculate the number of ways you can choose one card of each suit. There are 13 ways to choose a spade and 13 ways to choose a heart.
Step 2: Determine the number of total outcomes.
Since there are 52 cards in a standard deck, the total number of possible outcomes or cards is 52.
Step 3: Calculate the odds in favor.
The odds in favor of an event are calculated by dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the number of total outcomes. In this case, divide the number of ways to choose a spade and a heart (13 * 13 = 169) by the total number of cards (52).
Odds in favor = (Number of favorable outcomes) / (Number of total outcomes)
= 169 / 52
= 3.25 (rounded to two decimal places)
Therefore, the odds in favor of drawing a spade and a heart are approximately 3.25.
