Question: 1 / 400

What is the probability of drawing an ace from a standard deck of cards?

1/52

1/26

1/13

To find the probability of drawing an ace from a standard deck of cards, we need to consider the total number of favorable outcomes compared to the total number of possible outcomes.

A standard deck of cards contains 52 cards in total, which includes 4 aces (one from each suit: hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades). The probability can be calculated using the formula:

Probability = (Number of favorable outcomes) / (Total number of possible outcomes)

In this case, the number of favorable outcomes is 4 (the aces), and the total number of possible outcomes is 52 (the total cards). Thus, the probability of drawing an ace is:

Probability = 4 / 52

When simplified, this fraction becomes:

Probability = 1 / 13

Therefore, the correct answer reflects the calculated probability that, when one card is drawn from the deck, it is an ace.
