Answer

C

Step-by-step solution

4 steps
  1. Determine the total number of possible outcomes.

    A standard pack of cards contains 52 cards. When one card is drawn, the total number of possible outcomes is 52.

    n(S)=52n(S) = 52
  2. Determine the number of favorable outcomes.

    We want to find the probability of drawing the King of Spades. In a standard deck of 52 cards, there is only one King of Spades.

    n(E)=1n(E) = 1
  3. Calculate the probability.

    The probability of an event is given by the formula:

    P(E)=Number of favorable outcomesTotal number of possible outcomesP(E) = \frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of possible outcomes}} P(King of Spades)=n(E)n(S)=152P(\text{King of Spades}) = \frac{n(E)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{52}
  4. Match the result with the given options.

    The calculated probability is 152\frac{1}{52}.
    Comparing this with the given options:
    A. 113\frac{1}{13}
    B. 126\frac{1}{26}
    C. 152\frac{1}{52}
    D. 413\frac{4}{13}

    The correct option is C.

    The final answer is C\boxed{\text{C}}
