Question

When a card is drawn from a pack of 52 cards. The probability that it may be either a king or a queen is $\frac{2}{13}$.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A

True

Probability of an event E, P(E) =$\frac{\text{number of favourable outcomes}}{\text{total number of outcomes}}$
There are four kings and four queens in a deck of 52. Hence the number of favourable outcomes of getting a king or a queen is 8.
Hence the probability of drawing a king or a queen = $\frac{8}{52}$ = $\frac{2}{13}$
