Answer : Option A
Explanation :
Total number of cards = 52
Total number of Ace cards = 4
$MF#%\text{P(Ace) = }\dfrac{4}{52} = \dfrac{1}{13}$MF#%
Total number of King cards = 4$MF#%\text{P(King) = }\dfrac{4}{52} = \dfrac{1}{13}$MF#%
Total number of Queen cards = 4$MF#%\text{P(Queen) = }\dfrac{4}{52} = \dfrac{1}{13}$MF#%
Here, clearly the events of getting an Ace , King and Queen are , we haveP(Ace or King or Queen) = P (Ace) + P (King)+ P(Queen)
$MF#%= \dfrac{1}{13} + \dfrac{1}{13} + \dfrac{1}{13} = \dfrac{3}{13}$MF#%
