Answer:

The probability of drawing a King is 4/52 or about . 0769, which is also the probability of drawing a Queen. The probability that a card drawn from the deck will be both a King and a Queen is zero. The probability that a card will be either a King or a Queen is 8/52.

Answer:

4/52 or 1/13

Explanation:

In a standard deck of 52 cards, there are 4 suits and each suit has 13 cards.

There are 4 kings, 4 queens, 4 aces, and 4 jacks.

So the probability of drawing a king would be:
4/52 = 1/13
