Abdullah · Answer 1

In a standard deck of cards, there are a total number of 52 different card. From those 52 cards, 4 cards are numbered as five. Therefore the probability of selecting a card of five is:

Probability = 4 / 52 = 1 / 13

Assuming that no replacement is made, so the probability changes with each draw, since the total number of cards decreases from 52 to 51 to 50 and so on. Therefore this is not a simple event.
