A card is drawn from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. Find the probability that the card is an ace or a king.
A) 4 /13
B) 8 /13
C) 2 /13
D) 1/13
Answer:
C )
Step-by-Step explanation
Number of aces in a deck = 4
Number of king in a deck = 4
Probability that an ace is drawn = 4/52
Probability that a king is drawn = 4/52
So,
The probability that an ace or a king is drawn = (4/52)+(4/52)
= 8/52 = 2/13.
Option C) is correct.
