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. $$\frac{{1}}{{13}}$$

B. $$\frac{{3}}{{13}}$$

C. $$\frac{{1}}{{4}}$$

D. $$\frac{{9}}{{52}}$$

Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Clearly, there are 52 cards, out of which there are 12 face cards.
$$\eqalign{ & \therefore P\left( {{\text{getting}}\,{\text{a}}\,{\text{face}}\,{\text{card}}} \right) \cr & = \frac{{12}}{{52}} = \frac{3}{{13}} \cr} $$

    P=(12C1)/(52C1)
    =3/13
