One card is drawn from a pack of 52 cards. What is the probability that the card drawn is either a red card or a king ?
A. $$\frac{1}{2}$$
B. $$\frac{6}{13}$$
C. $$\frac{7}{13}$$
D. $$\frac{27}{52}$$
Answer: Option C
Solution (By Examveda Team)
Here, n(S) = 52There are 26 red cards (including 2 kings) and there are 2 more kings.
Let E = event of getting a red card or a king.
Then, n(E) = 28
$$\therefore P(E) = \frac{{n(E)}}{{n(S)}} = \frac{{28}}{{52}} = \frac{7}{{13}}$$
