Question

The probability of drawing a spade from a pack of card is: 

(a) \(\frac{1}{52}\)

(b) \(\frac{1}{13}\)

(c) \(\frac{4}{13}\)

(d) \(\frac{1}{4}\)

Answer 1

(d) \(\frac{1}{4}\)

Number of spade cards is 13. 

Total number of cards in pack = 52 

Probability of drawing a spade card is = \(\frac{13}{52}=\frac{1}{4}\)
