Answer 1

a) There are a total of four 10s in a pack of cards. Therefore the probability of picking up a 10 is computed here as:
= Number of cards ranked 10 / Total number of cards in a deck of cards

= 4/52

= 1/13

Therefore 1/13 is the required probability here ( in fraction form)

= 7.69% is the required probability here.

b) The probability of getting no jack is computed here as:

= Total number of non jack cards / Total cards

= 39/52

= 0.75

Therefore 3/4 is the required probability here is fractional form while 75% is in percentage form.
