Total number of all possible outcomes = 52.
(i) There are 4 kings in all.
`:. ` P(drawing a king) = ` 4/52 = 1/13`.
(ii) There are 2 red eights in all.
`:. ` P(drawing a red eight) ` = 2/52 = 1/26`.
(iii) There are 13 cards of spades.
`:. ` P(drawing a spade) ` = 13/52 = 1/4`.
(iv) There are 26 red cards.
` :. ` P(drawing a red card) ` = (26)/(52) = 1/2`.
(v) There is one six of the clubs.
`:. ` P(drawing the six of the clubs) ` = 1/52`.
(vi) There are 12 face cards.
`:. ` P(drawing a face card) = `12/52 = 3/13`.
