One card is drawn at random from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards. Find the probability that the card drawn is
(i) a king
(ii) a spade
(iii) a red queen
(iv) a black 8.
Total number of possible outcomes $=52$
(i) There are 4 kings cards (king of hearts, king of diamonds, king of spades and king of cloves)
Number of kings $=4$
$\therefore \mathrm{P}_{(\text {king })}=\frac{4}{52}=\frac{1}{13}$
(ii) There is a total of 13 spades cards.
Number of spades $=13$
$\therefore \mathrm{P}_{(\text {spades })}=\frac{13}{52}=\frac{1}{4}$
(iii) There are 2 red queens in a pack (queen of hearts and queen of diamonds)
Number of red queens $=2$
$\therefore \mathrm{P}_{(\text {red }) \text { queen })}=\frac{2}{52}=\frac{1}{26}$
(iv) There are 2 black $8 \mathrm{~s}$ in a pack (8 of cloves and 8 of spades)
Number of black $8 \mathrm{~s}=2$
$\therefore \mathrm{P}_{(\text {black } 8)}=\frac{2}{52}=\frac{1}{26}$
