Total number of possible outcomes = 52

P(E) = (Number of favourable outcomes/ Total number of outcomes)

(i) Total numbers of king of red colour = 2

P (getting a king of red colour) = 2/52

= 1/26 = 0.038

(ii) Total numbers of face cards = 12

P (getting a face card) = 12/52

= 3/13 = 0.23

(iii) Total numbers of red face cards = 6

P (getting a king of red colour) = 6/52

= 3/26 = 0.11

(iv) Total numbers of jack of hearts = 1

P (getting a king of red colour) = 1/52 = 0.019

(v) Total numbers of king of spade = 13

P (getting a king of red colour) = 13/52

= 1/4 = 0.25

(vi) Total numbers of queen of diamonds = 1

P (getting a king of red colour) = 1/52 = 0.019
