    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 :

    Total number of possible outcomes = 52
    In 52 playing cards, there are 12 face cards.                \[\therefore \]  Favourable outcomes =12     
    \[\therefore \] P(getting a face card)
    \[=\frac{\text{Favourable outcomes}}{\text{Possible outcomes}}=\frac{12}{52}=\frac{3}{13}\]
    So, option [d] is correct.
