Question

A card is drawn at random from a pack of $52$ cards. What is the probability that the card drawn is other than Ace card?

• A. $\frac{13}{12}$
• B. $\frac{12}{13}$
• C. $\frac{1}{13}$
• D. $\frac{4}{13}$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $\frac{12}{13}$

Total number of cards $=52$

Number of Ace card $=4$

Cards other than Ace card $=52-4=48$

Probability of getting card other than Ace is $\text{P(A)}=\frac{\text{Number of favourable outcome}}{\text{Total number of outcome}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{P(A)}=\frac{48}{52}=\frac{12}{13}.$
