Question

​

Answer 1

Answer:

5/22

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that a standard deck have 52 cards.

So after dealing 30 cards, we have 22 cards left. We know there are 13 spades so since 8 spades are dealt only 5 remain.

So we have a possible chance of pulling a spades since 5 spades remain. We must respect the other cards so we the other 17 cards and our 5 cards we want.So our probability is

possibility of what we want/ total objects. which is

5/22.
