What is the probability of drawing 2 face cards in a draw of 2 cards from a full deck of cards?1. 13/2212. 9/2213. 11/2214. 4/135. 10/221

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : 11/221

Given:

2 cards have been drawn from a full deck of 52 cards.

Formula used:

Probability = number of possibility in the required scenario / all possible scenarios

Calculations:

Number of face cards in a full deck of cards = (3 × 4) = 12

[each series of cards contain 3 face cards i.e. king, queen and jack]

Total number of cards = 52

So, required probability = \({}_2^{12}C\;/\) \({}_2^{52}C\) = (12 × 11)/ (52 × 51) = 11/221
