Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Explanation: To find the probability of an outcome, find the total number of ways that event can happen divided by the total number of possible outcomes. There are 52 cards in a deck of cards, so there are 52 total possible outcomes.
Detailed explanation-2: -The total number of cards in pack is 52. The total number of cards in pack is 52. ∴ The probability of getting a numbered card is 9/13.
Detailed explanation-3: -) = 52! (52−5)! 5! = 2598960 different ways to choose 5 cards from the available 52 cards.
Detailed explanation-4: -So, by using the Counting Principal, we have 52*51 = 2652 ways to draw two cards from a deck of 52 without replacing the first card before drawing the second card.
