Favorable case = the spade is picked in the third draw or later   Unfavorable case = The spade is picked in either first draw or in second draw   Probability = Favorable outcomes / Total out comes   Also probability = 1-(Unfavorable outcomes / Total out comes)   Unfavorable case: probability of spade picked in first draw = 13/52 =1/4   i.e., Favorable Probability = 1 - (1/4) = 3/4   Answer Option: 3/4
