Question 995747: what is the probability of picking an ace from a box of 52 cards?
Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The number of ways that the event can occur that you would consider a success divided by the number of ways that the event can occur. If you want an Ace on one draw, then there are 4 ways that you can have a successful outcome of the experiment. The number of ways the event can occur at all is the number of cards in the deck. Make sure you reduce your fractions.
