We are given 4 cards, and we are asked to determine the probability of getting the card numbered 5. To do that, let's remember that probability is defined as the quotient between the number of desired outcomes over the total number of outcomes. In this case, there is only one card with the number 5 and there is a total of four cards. Therefore, the probability is:


P(5)=(1)/(4)=0.25=25\text{ percent}

Therefore, the probability is 25%.
