Answer:
[tex]P(Spade) = 0.25[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given.
In a deck, there are:
[tex]Cards = 52[/tex]
[tex]Spade= 13[/tex]
Required
Determine the probability that a selected card is a spade
This is represented as: P(Spade) and it is calculated using:
[tex]P(Spade) = \frac{Spade}{Cards}[/tex]
Substitute 13 for Spade and 52 for Cards
[tex]P(Spade) = \frac{13}{52}[/tex]
[tex]P(Spade) = 0.25[/tex]
Hence, the required probability is 0.25
