What are the odds that you will pick an ace from a standard deck of 52 cards?

There are 4 aces and 52 cards so the unsimplified versions is 4/52 but after you simplify it is 1/13 so you have a 1/13 chance

For the 52 cards, there are 4 aces
Odds of picking an ace=
(number of aces)/(total number of cards)
=
(4)/(52)
On simplifying, you get 1/13
