A modern deck of cards contains fifty-two cards (thirteen in each of four suits). The four suits are hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades. Hearts and diamonds are red, and clubs and spades are black. Each suit consists of cards labeled 2 through 10, followed by jack, queen, king, and ace. Face cards are the jack, queen, and king; and picture cards are the jack, queen, king, and ace.

12 face cards ; 13 spade cards ; 25 cards total
Face cards - Jack, Queen, King
4 suits so 4 (suits) x 3 (faces) = 12 cards for face
52 (cards total) divided by 4 (suits) = 13
Spades - 13
