A card is drawn at random from a well shuffled pack of 52 playing cards.Find the probability that the drawn card is neither a king nor a queen


Let  E be the event that the drwan card is neither a king nor a queen.

Total number of possible outcomes = 52

total number of kings  and queens = 4+4 = 8

Therefore, there are 52 - 8 = 44 cards that are neither king nor queen.

total number of favourable outcomes = 44

  Required probability = P(E) = Favourable outcomestotal number of outcomes = 4452                                                         =  1113
