Francisco Baxter · Answer 1

This type of probability is called theoretical probability.

Theoretically, you should be able to draw a 10 of spades 1 out of 52 times, which makes the probability 1/52.

The other main type of probability is experimental probability, which means if you draw 52 cards and draw the 10 of spades 8 times, the theoretical probability is still 1/52, but the experimental probability is 8/52.
