Question:

One card is drawn at random from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards. What is the probability of getting a face card?

(a) $\frac{1}{26}$

(b) $\frac{3}{26}$

(C) $\frac{3}{13}$

 

(d) $\frac{4}{13}$

 

Solution:

(c) $\frac{3}{13}$

Explanation:
Total number of all possible outcomes= 52
Number of  face cards ( 4 kings + 4 queens  + 4 jacks) = 12

$\therefore P($ getting a face card $)=\frac{12}{52}=\frac{3}{13}$
