One card is drawn at random from a well shuffled pack of 52 cards. The probability that the card drawn is a face card (Jack, Queen and King only) is
  1. $1 / 13$
  2. $3 / 13$
  3. $1 / 4$
  4. $9 / 52$

Solution

$\begin{aligned} & =\mathrm{P}[\text { Jack }]+\mathrm{P}[\text { Queen }]+\mathrm{P}[\text { King }] \\ & =\frac{4}{52}+\frac{4}{52}+\frac{4}{52}=\frac{12}{52}=\frac{3}{13}\end{aligned}$
