If you select one card at random from a standard deck of 52 cards, what is the probability of that card being a 3, 4, OR 5?

Since we have four three cards, four four cards and four five cards, this means that we have 12 possibilities out of 52; that is the probability is:


P=(12)/(52)=(3)/(13)

Therefore the probability is 3/13
