Question

From a pack of 52 cards, a card is drawn randomly. Find the probability that the card drawn is either a heart, a queen or a king.

• A. $\frac{17}{52}$
• B. $\frac{21}{52}$
• C. $\frac{19}{52}$
• D. $\frac{9}{26}$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $\frac{19}{52}$

There are 13 hearts (including one queen and one king). Besides them, there are 3 queens and 3 kings in remaining 3 suits each.
THus, n(E)=13 + 3 + 3 = 19
$P\left(E\right)=\frac{19}{52}$
