Answer 1

Anthony Amato

# 1/4=0.25=25%#.

There are #52# cards in a deck, out of which #1# card can be drawn in

#52# ways.

Therefore, the total no. of outcomes#=n=52#.

There are #13# cards of diamond in a deck, and, out of which #1#

card can be selected in #13# ways.

Hence, the total no. of favorable outcomes#=m=13#.

#:." The Reqd. Prob."=m/n=13/52=1/4=0.25=25%#.
