Respuesta :

Given:

Total number of cards = 52

Number of cards drawn = 1

Then:

Number of ways of drawing a card from 52 cards

[tex]\begin{gathered} =^{52}C_1 \\ =52 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Number of queens in a deck of cards = 4

Number of ways that one card is a queen

[tex]\begin{gathered} =^4C_1 \\ =4 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Probability of drawing a queen

[tex]\begin{gathered} =\frac{\text{ Number of favorable cases}}{\text{ Total number of cases}} \\ =\frac{4}{52} \\ =\frac{1}{13} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Final answer: 1/13
