~1.9% chance you'll draw the Ace of Spades

Explanation:

There are 52 cards in a deck and one Ace of Spades in the deck. This can be expressed as #1/52#. Divide to find the percent.

#1/52 = 0.01923076923#

There's a 1.9% chance you'll draw an Ace of Spades.

You don't actually have to divide #1/52# to know you percentage probability..... See that #1/52# can be written as #2/104# which.. approximately.. is #2/100# which is #2%#

But remember that I'm only doing it because #104# is near to #100#
the larger the number will differ from #100# the larger the answer will differ from the real one
