Previous Year Question (PYQs)



A card is drawn from a pack of 52 cards. A gambler bets that it is a spade or an ace. What are the odds against his winning this bet?





Solution

Total cards = 52 Favorable cards = 13 spades + 3 other aces = 16 Odds **against** = $\dfrac{\text{unfavorable}}{\text{favorable}} = \dfrac{52 - 16}{16} = \dfrac{36}{16} = 9:4.$
