Question

One card is drawn from a well shuffled deck of $52$ cards. Calculate the probability that the card will be a diamond.

• A. $\frac{11}{52}$
• B. $\frac{1}{4}$
• C. $\frac{12}{52}$
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is B $\frac{1}{4}$

Total no. of cards $=52$
$\therefore$ Total number of events $=52$
Let $E$ be an event of getting a diamond card, $n\left(E\right)=13$
$\therefore P\left(E\right)=\frac{13}{52}=\frac{1}{4}$
