a card is drawn at random from a standard 52 card deck. find the probability that the card is not a king.
There are 4 kings in a standard 52 card deck. To not get a king, we'd have 52 - 4 = 48 possible cards.
The probability of not drawing a King is 48/52.
But we can simplify this. So we type the fraction 48/52 into our search engine, and get:
12/13
