Question

A card is drawn at random from a pack of 52 cards. What is the probability that the card drawn is either ace or a king?

Options

• `4/13`

• `1/13`

• `2/13`

• None of the above

Answer 1

`2/13`

Explanation:

Total number of cards = 52

Number of cards of Ace or King = 4 + 4 = 8

∴ Probability = `(n(E))/(n(S)) = 8/52 = 2/13`
