Question

A card is drawn from a pack of 52 cards. Find the probability that the card drawn is an ace.

Answer 1

Number of possible outcomes when card is drawn from pack of 52 cards = 52

n(S) = 52

Number of ace cards = 4

E = event of drawing an ace 

n(E) = 4 

Probability of drawing an ace = `(n(E))/(n(S)) = 4/52 = 1/13`
