QuestionSolve the problem involving probabilities with independent events. A card is drawn from a 52-card deck and a fair coin is flipped. What is the probability of getting jack and heads? A. 126\frac{1}{26} B. 14\frac{1}{4} C. 352\frac{3}{52} D. 113\frac{1}{13}

Studdy Solution
Since the events are independent, multiply the probabilities of each event to find the combined probability.
P(Jack and Heads)=P(Jack)×P(Heads)=113×12=126P(\text{Jack and Heads}) = P(\text{Jack}) \times P(\text{Heads}) = \frac{1}{13} \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{26}
The probability of getting a jack and heads is:
126\boxed{\frac{1}{26}}
