Yes, I got it. As per the question, it is 12. But actually, it is 16.

Total there are 16 face cards jack, queen, king and ace.
But according to question it is mentioned only (jack, queen and king) so we have taken 12 instead of 16 I think you might have got what I mean to say.

Once observe the question clearly, that jack, king, and queen are 3 cards than each one 4 so 4 + 4 + 4 = 12 I think it may help you.

@Rajarshi,
"AND" means "MULTIPLICATION","OR" means "ADDITION"
In this we are given to draw a single card from J, Q, K means
J OR Q OR K means 4+4+4.
Hope you are cleared.
Thanks..!
