    Find the probability of getting a face card.

    A) \[\frac{1}{26}\]

    B) \[\frac{1}{13}\]

    C) \[\frac{2}{13}\]

    D) \[\frac{3}{13}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    (ii) Let \[{{E}_{2}}\]= Event of getting a face card \[\therefore \]Number of outcomes favourable to \[{{E}_{2}}=12\] [\[\because \]in a deck of cards, there are 12 face cards, namely 4 kings, 4 jacks, 4 queens] Hence, probability of getting a face card, \[P\left( {{E}_{2}} \right)=\frac{12}{52}=\frac{3}{13}\]
