Question:
Once card is drawn at random from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards. What is the probability of getting a black face card?
(a) $\frac{1}{26}$
(b) $\frac{3}{26}$
(c) $\frac{3}{13}$
(d) $\frac{3}{14}$
Solution:
(b) $\frac{3}{26}$
Explanation:
Total number of all possible outcomes= 52
Number of black face cards ( 2 kings + 2 queens + 2 jacks) = 6
$\therefore P($ getting a black face card $)=\frac{6}{52}=\frac{3}{26}$
