For every ace there are 12 other cards.
4/52=1/13

there are 52 cards in a deck, and 4 are aces. 4 out of 52 (or 52 divided by 4) is 13

How many cards are in the deck (assumming no jokers)? How many aces are there? You now have how many chances out of how many cards? Reduce the ratio to its lowest terms (like reducing a fraction). and you will have your anser.
