Question

A card is drawn from a well shuffled pack of playing cards. The probability that it is a king of heart, is

• A. $\frac{1}{52}$
• B. $\frac{15}{52}$
• C. $\frac{18}{52}$
• D. $\frac{19}{52}$

Answer 1

The correct option is A

$\frac{1}{52}$

Explanation for the correct option:

Finding the probability to urge the guts of the king from a well-shuffled pack of playing cards:

Total number of cards in an exceedingly well-shuffled pack of playing cards $=52$

Number of cards consisting of the king of heart $=1$

The formula for the probability $\mathbf{=}\mathbf{}\frac{\mathbf{N}\mathbf{u}\mathbf{m}\mathbf{b}\mathbf{e}\mathbf{r}\mathbf{}\mathbf{o}\mathbf{f}\mathbf{}\mathbf{f}\mathbf{a}\mathbf{v}\mathbf{o}\mathbf{r}\mathbf{a}\mathbf{b}\mathbf{l}\mathbf{e}\mathbf{}\mathbf{o}\mathbf{u}\mathbf{t}\mathbf{c}\mathbf{o}\mathbf{m}\mathbf{e}\mathbf{s}}{\mathbf{T}\mathbf{o}\mathbf{t}\mathbf{a}\mathbf{l}\mathbf{}\mathbf{n}\mathbf{u}\mathbf{m}\mathbf{b}\mathbf{e}\mathbf{r}\mathbf{}\mathbf{o}\mathbf{f}\mathbf{}\mathbf{f}\mathbf{a}\mathbf{v}\mathbf{o}\mathbf{r}\mathbf{a}\mathbf{b}\mathbf{l}\mathbf{e}\mathbf{}\mathbf{o}\mathbf{u}\mathbf{t}\mathbf{c}\mathbf{o}\mathbf{m}\mathbf{e}\mathbf{s}}$

$=\frac{1}{52}$

$\therefore$The probability that it's a king of heart is $\frac{\mathbf{1}}{\mathbf{52}}$

Hence, Option(A) is the correct answer.
