A card is drawn at random from a pack of cards. What ist the probability that the drawn card is neither a heart nor a king?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

There are 13 cards which are heart and 4 cards which are king.
But one card is king or heart = 13 + 4 - 1 = 16
Number of cards which are not king or heart = 52 - 16 = 36
So, required probability = `(36)/(52) = (9)/(13)`
