Solution
Let S denote the sample space.
Then, n(S) = 52
Let E1 = event of drawing a black king
We know that the number of black kings is two: one for spade and one for club.
i.e. n (E1) = 2
\[\therefore P\left( E_1 \right) = \frac{n\left( E_1 \right)}{n\left( S \right)} = \frac{2}{52} = \frac{1}{26}\]
