Question

One card is drawn from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards. What is the probability that the card is not an ace?

Accepted Answer

C. $\frac{12}{13}$

A deck has 4 aces, so non-aces are $52-4=48$.
Hence the probability is $\frac{48}{52}=\frac{12}{13}$.
Equivalently, it is $1-\frac{1}{13}=\frac{12}{13}$.

Answer

$\frac{1}{13}$

Answer

$\frac{4}{13}$
