The probability of drawing any number from 2 to 10 from a standard deck of 52 cards is:
A10/52
B36/52
C26/52
D13/52
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. 36/52
There are 4 suits × 9 numbered cards each (2 through 10) = 36 such cards in a 52-card deck.
**So probability = 36/52 = 9/13 ≈ 0.692. (Per the textbook table — 'More likely' on the probability scale.)**
