Question

#8 - A card is drawn from a standard deck of playing cards. Find the probability that youdraw a face card.o 23.1%O 19.2%O 21.2%o 25%

Answer 1

Given:

The objective is to find the probability of drawing a face card from a deck of card.

The number of cards in a deck is, N = 52.

The number of face cards in a deck is, n(E) = 12.

Then, the required probability can be calculatad as,

$\begin{gathered} p(E)=\frac{n(E)}{N} \\ =\frac{12}{52} \\ =0.231 \\ =23.1\text{ percentage.} \end{gathered}$

Hence, option (A) is the correct answer.
