One card is drawn at random from a pack of 52 cards. What is the probability that the card drawn is a face card (Jack, Queen and King only)?

  • A.1/13
  • B.3/13
  • C.1/4
  • D.9/52

Answer: B

Each suit has three face cards - jack, queen and king - so there are \( 3 \times 4 = 12 \) in the pack.

\[ P = \frac{12}{52} = \frac{3}{13} \]

The ace is not a face card here, as the question makes explicit; counting it would give \( \tfrac{16}{52} \).
