A card is drawn from a pack of 52 cards. The card is drawn at random. What is the probability that it is neither a spade nor a Jack?
A. $$\frac{{4}}{{13}}$$
B. $$\frac{{2}}{{13}}$$
C. $$\frac{{6}}{{13}}$$
D. $$\frac{{9}}{{13}}$$
Answer: Option D
Solution (By Examveda Team)
There are 13 spade and 3 more jackProbability of getting spade or a jack:
$$\eqalign{ & = \frac{{13 + 3}}{{52}} \cr & = \frac{4}{{13}} \cr} $$
So probability of getting neither spade nor a jack:
$$\eqalign{ & = 1 - \frac{4}{{13}} \cr & = \frac{9}{{13}} \cr} $$
