Question

From a well-shuffled pack of 52 cards, a card is drawn at random, find the probability that it is a spade.

• A. $\frac{1}{51}$
• B. $\frac{1}{2}$
• C. $\frac{1}{52}$
• D. $\frac{1}{4}$

Answer 1

The correct option is D

$\frac{1}{4}$

There are 13 spades in a deck of 52. Hence, the probability of drawing a spade is $\frac{13}{52}$ = $\frac{1}{4}$
