Question

A card is drawn from a standard deck of 52 cards (13 cards in each of four different suits). What is the probability that the card is a heart (one of the four suits)?

Answer 1

The answer is actually in the question itself.
"(one of the four suits)" ----> the answer is actually 1/4
Formally....13 of the 52 cards are hearts so the probability is
13/52 ... which simplifies to 1/4

Answer 2

so my answer would be 1/4 ...?

Answer 3

0.00
0.25
0.50
1.00
4.00
These are my choices

Thank you so much :)

A and B cannot be disjoint.
A and B must be independent.
A and B cannot be independent.
A and B must be disjoint.
