Question:
From a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards, one card is drawn at random. What is the probability of getting a queen?
(a) $\frac{1}{13}$
(b) $\frac{1}{26}$
(c) $\frac{4}{39}$
(d) none of these
Solution:
(a) $\frac{1}{13}$
Explanation:
Total number of all possible outcomes= 52
Number of queens = 4
$\therefore P($ getting a queen $)=\frac{4}{52}=\frac{1}{13}$
