what is the probability that a card drawn randomly from a standard deck of 52 cards is a nine? express your answer as a fraction

Respuesta :

Given the question, we need to know that a standard deck contains 52 cards out of which there are 4 cards showing nine.

[tex]\text{Probability = number of possible outcomes/number of total outcomes}[/tex]

To get the probability of randomly drawing a nine will be:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{n\text{ (nine)}}{n\text{ (total cards)}} \\ pr(nine)=\frac{4}{52}=\frac{1}{13} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the probability of drawing nine is 1/13
