Question

One card is selected from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards, the probability of getting the queen of diamonds is:

• A. \(\frac{1}{52}\)
• B. \(\frac{3}{26}\)
• C. \(\frac{1}{26}\)
• D. \(\frac{1}{13}\)

Hint:

The probability of drawing a specific card from a deck is \(\frac{1}{52}\) for any particular card.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

In a deck of 52 cards, there is exactly 1 queen of diamonds. The probability of selecting one specific card is: \[ P(\text{queen of diamonds}) = \frac{1}{52} \] Thus, the correct answer is option (1).
