MCQ

Two cards are drawn without replacement from a well-shuffled pack. Find the probability that one of them is an ace of heart

A
$\frac{1}{{25}}$
✓
$\frac{1}{{26}}$
C
$\frac{1}{{52}}$
D
None of these

✓

Answer

Correct option: B.

$\frac{1}{{26}}$

b
(b) There are two conditions.

$(i)$ When first is an ace of heart and second one is non-ace of heart

$ = \frac{1}{{52}} \times \frac{{51}}{{52}}\, \Rightarrow \frac{1}{{52}}$

$(ii)$ When first is non-ace of heart and second one is an ace of heart

$ = \frac{{51}}{{52}} \times \frac{1}{{51}} = \frac{1}{{52}}$

$\therefore$ Required probability $ = \frac{1}{{52}} + \frac{1}{{52}} = \frac{1}{{26}}.$
