An experiment is picking a card from a fair deck. a.) What isthe probability of picking a Jack given that the card is a facecard? b.) What is the probability of picking a heart given that thecard is a three? c.) What is the probability of picking a red cardgiven that the card is an ace? d.)

Total card = 52

a) P(jack | face card) = P(jack and face card) / P(face card)

                                  = (4/52) / (12/52)

                                  = 4/12

                                  = 1/3 or 0.333

b) P(heart | three) = P(heart and three) / P(three)

                             = (1/52) / (4/52)

                             = 1/4

                             = 0.25

c) P(red card | ace) = P(red card and ace) / P(ace)

                                = (2/52) / (4/52)

                                = 2/4

                                = 1/2 or 0.5

d) P(jack) = 4/52

Since P(jack | face card) is not equal to P(jack), they are not independent events.

e) P(red card) = 26/52 = 0.5

Since P(red | ace) = P(red), they are independent events.
