A card is drawn from a well shuffled pack of 52 playing cards. The probability of getting a face card is :

1. $\dfrac{4}{13}$

2. $\dfrac{2}{13}$

3. $\dfrac{3}{13}$

4. $\dfrac{1}{13}$

Total number of outcomes = 52

Number of favourable outcomes (Getting a face card) = 12

P(Getting a face card) = $\dfrac{\text{Number of favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}$

= $\dfrac{12}{52}$

= $\dfrac{3}{13}$

Hence, option 3 is the correct option.
