A card is drawn from a pack of 52 cards. The probability of getting a queen of the club or a king of the heart is?

1/26
1/13
2/13
1/52

Correct Answer: 1/26

Explanation:

Here in this pack of cards, n(S) = 52

Let E = event of getting a queen of the club or a king of the heart

Then, n(E) = 2

P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 2/52 = 1/26
