Question

A card is drawn from a well-shuffled deck of playing cards. Find the probability of drawing a face card.

• A. $\frac{8}{13}$
• B. $\frac{3}{13}$
• C. $\frac{4}{13}$
• D. $\frac{1}{4}$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $\frac{3}{13}$

There are $12$ face cards in 52 well-shuffled deck of playing cards

therefore $P\left(E\right)=\frac{car{d}_{face}}{car{d}_{total}}=$$\frac{12}{52}=$$\frac{3}{13}$
