Given:

The objective is to find the probability of drawing a face card from a deck of card.

The number of cards in a deck is, N = 52.

The number of face cards in a deck is, n(E) = 12.

Then, the required probability can be calculatad as,


\begin{gathered} p(E)=(n(E))/(N) \\ =(12)/(52) \\ =0.231 \\ =23.1\text{ percentage.} \end{gathered}

Hence, option (A) is the correct answer.
