Question

A card is drawn from a pack of 52 cards. The probability of getting an ace is $\frac{1}{52}$.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B

False

Probability of an event E, P(E) =$\frac{\text{number of favourable outcomes}}{\text{total number of outcomes}}$
Since there are four aces in a deck of 52 cards, the number of favourable outcomes of getting an ace is 4.
Hence the probability of drawing an ace is = $\frac{4}{52}$ = $\frac{1}{13}$.
Therefore the given statement is false.
