Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 39/158 Given: Total number of cards in two full deck cards = 2 × 52 = 104 Two cards are drawn at random. Formula used: Probability = Favorable outcome / Total outcomes Calculation: Total number of cards after the removal of all face cards = (104 – 2 × 4 × 3) = 80 [Each deck contains 4 × 3 = 12 face cards] Total number of odd numbered cards = 40 Required probability = \({}_2^{40}C/{}_2^{80}C\) = (40 × 39)/(80 × 79) = 39/158 |
