Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Each card corresponds to a sample point with a 1/52 probability.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hence for drawing a card from a deck, each outcome has probability 1/52. The probability of an event is the sum of the probabilities of the outcomes in the event, hence the probability of drawing a spade is 13/52 = 1/4, and the probability of drawing a king is 4/52 = 1/13.
Detailed explanation-3: -Probability of getting not king =5248=1312.
Detailed explanation-4: -The probability of picking a king is 524=131.
