Accepted Solution
A:
there are 52 cards in a standard deck. 4 of these are queens. therefore there is a 4/52 or 1/13 chance of drawing a queen at random
if you draw a card at random and ate told it is a face card (J, Q, or K) then there are 4 queens out of 12 face cards = 4/12or 1/3 chance you drew a queen
