Question

?The question is based on a 52 card deck without Jokers. Find the probability of drawing a 10 of Clubs.

Answer 1

`1/52`, or about a `1.92%` chance.

Explanation:

A regular 52 card deck has 52 cards, with 13 of each suite; Clubs, Hearts, Spades, and Diamonds. In each suite is the numbers 1-10, a jack, a queen, a king, and an ace. So, only one card exists of each combination of suite and number, and there are no repetitions.

Therefore, there is only one 10 of spades, and if there are 52 cards, the probability of drawing it is 1 in 52. This is represented as `1/52`, but can also be written in decimal form, `0.0192307692`, which can be rounded to `0.0192`, which in percentage form is `1.92%`.
