1
13
2
13
1
26
1
52
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Here, n(S) = 52.

Let E = event of getting a queen of club or a king of heart.

Then, n(E) = 2.

P(E) = n(E) = 2 = 1 .
n(S) 52 26

You're right @Abhishek.

But we have to choose 1 out of 52 and same as king also. So the right answer is 1/26.

They have clearly mentioned Queen of club and king of hearts. It is common sense there is only one queen of club and king of heart.

@Abhishek

13C1 means your selecting all thirteen cards.
13C1 Gives 13,
1card cannot be selected in 13 ways.

There is one Queen of Clubs in a standard deck of 52 playing cards. Each suit has one Queen, and the club's suit has its own Queen card.
Which means club = clever.
