Math Problem Statement
To decide who has to work the late shift, two coworkers use a standard deck of playing cards. If an even card is drawn, then Holly will work the late shift. If an odd card is drawn, Ben will work the late shift. If neither category is drawn, the card is placed back in the deck and they draw another card. Note: a face or ace card is not an odd or even card.
A card is drawn from the deck, what is the probability that Holly will work the late shift? Round to three decimal places.
P(Holly)=P(Holly)=
