Question

In a standard deck of playing cards, there are four suits (red suits = ♦ & ♥ ; black suits = ♣ & ♠). Each suit has 13 cards: ace (A), 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and the face cards jack (J), queen (Q), and king (K). In a single draw, what is the probability that you will draw a face card?

Answer 1

Answer:

0.2308

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Number of Cards in the suit = 52

Since there are 3 Face cards in each suit and a Total of 4 suits.

Number of Face Cards=3 Per Suit X 4 Suits =12

Therefore the probability of picking a face card in one draw is:

P(Drawing a Face Card)=Number of Face Cards ÷ Total Number of Cards

=12÷52

=0.2308
