how many face cards are in a deck of 52?

anonymous · Answer

Do you know what a face card is?

anonymous · Answer

12

amistre64 · Answer

3 faces, 4 suites ... 12 is adequate for me;  but some rules say aces are faces which skews the instructions

so, 12 out of 52 is the probability

anonymous · Answer

Exactly.

youre welcome

anonymous · Answer

12/52 is about 0.23, multiply that by 100, and you get 23, which is the percent. So if you were looking for the percent answer, it would be approximately 23%.
