Question 14 (ii)
One card is drawn from a well–shuffled deck of 52 cards. Find the probability of getting a face card.

Answer 1

There are 12 face cards in a pack.
$\therefore$ The number of favourable outcomes = 12
Total number of outcomes = 52

Hence, P (getting a face card)
$=\frac{Favourableoutcomes}{Totalnumberofoutcomes}=\frac{12}{52}=\frac{3}{13}$
