One card is drawn from deck of 52 cards, each of the 52 cards being equally likely to be drawn. Find the probability that the ball drawn is red.

A 1/3

B 1/2

C 1/4

D 1/6

Correct Answer: Option B

Total number of elementary events = 52

There are 26 red cards,out of which one red card can be drawn in \(26C_1\) ways =26.

So,required probability = 26/52 = 1/2
