Answer
Total number of cards = 52
Number of face cards = 12
Let E be the event of not picking a face card.
The number of favorable outcomes of the event E = 52 - 12 = 40
Assertion (A) is false.
In a standard deck of cards, "face cards" are the King, Queen, and Jack.
Each of the 4 suits (Hearts, Diamonds, Clubs, Spades) has 3 face cards.
Total face cards = 4 × 3 = 12.
Reason (R) is false.
Both A and R are false
Hence, option 4 is the correct option.
