Question

The king, queen and jack of clubs are removed from a deck of $52$ playing cards and the remaining cards are shuffled. A card is drawn from the remaining cards. Find the probability of getting a card of face card?

Answer 1

Probability is given by,

$P\left(A\right)$$=\frac{\text{no. of possible outcomes}}{\text{No. of total outcomes}}$

No. of all possible outcomes $=52-3=49$

Number of face cards $=12-3=9$

Required probability $=\frac{9}{49}$
