Question

    What is the probability of selecting a black face card from

    a shuffled deck of cards?
    A 1/13 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 2/13 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 3/26 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 11/13 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Total number of cards in a deck = 52

    There are 3 face cards (J, Q, K) in each suit.

    Black suits = Spades and Clubs → 2 suits

    So, black face cards = 3 × 2 = 6

    So, the required probability = (6/52) = (3/26)
