Step by Step Explanation:
  1. We know that George randomly withdrew a card from a deck of cards.
    Total number of cards in the deck = 52 cards
    Number of face cards in the deck of cards = 12 cards
  2. Probability that the card is a face card =  
    Number of face cards
    Total number of cards
     
    =  
    12
    52
     
    =  
    3
    13
     
  3. Hence, the probability that the card is a face card is  
    3
    13
          .
