Basic Probability

Front

What is the probability of drawing an ace of diamonds from a standard deck?

Back

P(ace of diamonds) = 1/52

Front

What is the probability of rolling a sum of 7 or 11 with a pair of dice?

Back

P(sum is 7 or 11) = 22%

Front

What is the probability of rolling a sum of 5 with a pair of dice?

Back

P(sum is 5) = 11%

Front

What is the probability of rolling a sum greater than 9 with a pair of dice?

Back

P(sum > 9) = 1/6

Front

What is the probability of drawing a diamond from a standard deck?

Back

P(diamond) = 25%

Front

Define probability in the context of a standard deck of cards.

Back

Probability is the measure of the likelihood that an event will occur, calculated as the number of favorable outcomes divided by the total number of possible outcomes.

Front

What is the total number of outcomes when rolling two dice?

Back

Total outcomes = 6 (sides of die 1) x 6 (sides of die 2) = 36.

Front

How do you calculate the probability of a specific event?

Back

P(event) = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of possible outcomes.

Front

What is the probability of rolling a sum of 2 with two dice?

Back

P(sum = 2) = 1/36.

Front

What is the probability of rolling a sum of 12 with two dice?

Back

P(sum = 12) = 1/36.
