Question

A card is drawn is from pack of 52 cards. Find the probability of drawing a card which is not a king.

• A. $\frac{10}{13}$
• B. $\frac{11}{13}$
• C. $\frac{12}{13}$
• D. $\frac{9}{13}$

Answer 1

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

Total number of cards $=52$

Number of cards excluding Kings can be $=52-4=48$

There are $4$ kings in a pack of 52 cards.

$P\left(A\right)=\frac{Numberoffavorableoutcomes}{TotalNumberofpossibleoutcomes}$

$\therefore P\left(A\right)=\frac{48}{52}=\frac{12}{13}$

Hence option $A$ is correct.
