--What are the odds that you will pick an ace from a standard deck of 52 cards.-- Is is 1:12 or 1:14? Please Help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that the only options you have?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no, there is also 2:13 and 5:21

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmmm only 1 ace?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

doesnt seem right if it's only 1 ace because if you divide 52 by 4(how many aces are in a deck) it comes out to be 13 so chances will be 1/13 if only one ace

That is what I thought!!! I was so confused because it is a MC question. So then my next step was to guess and hope I got the answer they are looking for but obviously 12 and 14 are close to 13 so I couldn't decide which one to place a bet on...

idk i would go with 2/13
