There are two cases to be considered.
CASE 1 : King of Hearts is drawn from Pack A and shuffled
with Pack B
Probability of drawing King of Hearts from Pack A = 1/51
(as Queen of Hearts is not to be drawn)
Probability of having King of Hearts on the top of the Pack
B = 2/53
So total probability of case 1 = (1/51) * (2/53) = 2 / (51
* 53)
CASE 2 : King of Hearts is not drawn from Pack A
Probability of not drawing King of Hearts from Pack A =
50/51 (as Queen of Hearts is not to be drawn)
Probability of having King of Hearts on the top of the Pack
B = 1/53
So total probability of case 2 = (50/51) * (1/53) = 50 /
(51 * 53)
Now adding both the probability, the required probability
is
= 2 / (51 * 53) + 50 / (51 * 53)
= 52 / (51 * 53)
= 52 / 2703
= 0.0192378

A woman took a certain number of eggs to the market and sold some of them. The next day, through the industry of her hens, the number left over had been doubled, and she sold the same number as the previous day. On the third day the new remainder was tripled, and she sold the same number as before. On the fourth day the remainder was quadrupled, and her sales the same as before. On the fifth day what had been left over were quintupled, yet she sold exactly the same as on all the previous occasions and so disposed of her entire stock. What is the smallest number of eggs she could have taken to market the first day, and how many did she sell daily? Note that the answer is not zero.
