Answer: 23/35

Explanation:

Probability is the measure of the likelihood of an event occurring. It is measured by the number of favorable outcomes over the total number of possible outcomes.

Here, the event is a black card being drawn. Since there are 12 + 23 = 35 cards in the deck, there are 35 possible outcomes of what card is picked. Out of those 35 cards, 23 are black, making 23 of the 35 options be the option we want.

23 black cards out of 35 total cards can also be written as
(23)/(35), which is the probability that a black card is chosen.
