Q From a well shuffled deck of 52 cards few
cards of same colour are missing if probability of red cards is 1/3
and probability of black cards is 2/3 Then which colour of cards
are missing and how many??? pls tell me

probability of red cards in a proper deck of 52 cards is equal
and is 1/2
if probability has changed into 1/3 and 2/3 it means red card is
missing(as probality of black as become greater than red)
if red is only missing then the number of black cards is equal
to 26
let x be the total number of new cards
26/x=2/3(probabilty of black cards)
26*3/2=x
39=x
so number of red cards missing is 52-39=13
hope u got it!!!!!
