What is the probability of drawing a king from a standard deck of cards? (2023)
  • Step 1: Understand that a standard deck of cards has 52 cards in total.
  • Step 2: Identify how many kings are in the deck. There are 4 kings (one for each suit: hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades).
  • Step 3: To find the probability of drawing a king, use the formula: Probability = (Number of favorable outcomes) / (Total number of outcomes).
  • Step 4: Substitute the numbers into the formula: Probability = 4 (number of kings) / 52 (total cards).
  • Step 5: Simplify the fraction 4/52 to get 1/13.
