A card is drawn at random from a well shuffled deck of 52 playing cards. the probability of getting a face card is

Solution:

Consider S as the sample space

In a pack, there are 52 playing cards

n(S) = 52

Consider B as the event that the card drawn is a face card

In a pack, total face card = 12

n(B) = 12

So the probability of it being a face card is

P(B) = n(B) / n(S)

= 12/52

= 3/13

Therefore, the probability of it being a face card is 3/13.
