Question

One card is drawn from a pack of $52$ cards. Find the probability of a card drawn being a $2$ of spades.

• A. $\frac{1}{4}$
• B. $\frac{1}{52}$
• C. $\frac{1}{13}$
• D. $\frac{3}{4}$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $\frac{1}{52}$

Total number of cards, $n\left(S\right)=52$

Number of 2 of spades in all the cards, $n\left(E\right)=1$

Hence the probability of a card being a red faced one is $=\frac{n\left(E\right)}{n\left(S\right)}=\frac{1}{52}$
