Answer

$\frac{1}{4}$

Work Step by Step

In a standard deck of $52$ cards, there are exactly $13$ spade cards. To find the probability of a spade being chosen at random from the deck, we can use the formula $P=\frac{n}{s}$ $n = 13$ and $s= 52$. So, $P=\frac{n}{s}$ $P=\frac{13}{52}$ $P=\frac{1}{4}$
