The correct Answer is:
To find the probability of drawing a black king from a standard deck of 52 cards, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Total Number of Outcomes**: - A standard deck of cards contains 52 cards in total. 2. **Identify the Favorable Outcomes**: - In a deck of cards, there are 2 black kings: the King of Spades and the King of Clubs. 3. **Apply the Probability Formula**: - The probability of an event is calculated using the formula: \[ \text{Probability} = \frac{\text{Number of Favorable Outcomes}}{\text{Total Number of Outcomes}} \] 4. **Calculate the Probability**: - The number of favorable outcomes (black kings) = 2 - The total number of outcomes (total cards) = 52 - Therefore, the probability of drawing a black king is: \[ \text{Probability} = \frac{2}{52} \] 5. **Simplify the Fraction**: - Simplifying \(\frac{2}{52}\) gives: \[ \frac{2 \div 2}{52 \div 2} = \frac{1}{26} \] 6. **Final Answer**: - The probability of drawing a black king from a standard deck of 52 cards is \(\frac{1}{26}\).
