Sagot :

Answer:

12/52 or 3/13

Step-by-step explanation:

So lets go over what we know:

There are 12 face cards in a deck of cards

There are 52 cards in a deck

So there are 12 face cards out of 52 cards.

The ratio of this is:

12 : 52

This looks like this in fraction form:

[tex]ratio1 : ratio2[/tex] =   [tex]\frac{ratio1}{ratio2}[/tex]

So the ratio 12 : 52 = [tex]\frac{12}{52}[/tex]

So the answer is 12/52(this can be simplified to 3/13)

Hope this helps!
