    A card is drawn randomly from a pack of 52 cards, then the probability that the card is king or spade is

    A)  \[\frac{4}{13}\]

    B)  \[\frac{1}{2}\]

    C)  \[\frac{1}{4}\]

    D)  \[\frac{3}{4}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     Number of ways to get a king \[{{=}^{4}}{{C}_{1}}\] Number of ways to get a spade \[{{=}^{13}}{{C}_{1}}\] Number of ways to get both \[{{=}^{1}}{{C}_{1}}\] \[\therefore \]Required probability\[=\frac{^{4}{{C}_{1}}{{+}^{13}}{{C}_{1}}{{-}^{1}}{{C}_{1}}}{^{52}{{C}_{1}}}\] \[=\frac{16}{52}=\frac{4}{13}\]
