B Correct answer
Explanation

There are 2 black aces (ace of spades and ace of clubs) in a deck of 52 cards. Probability = 2/52 = 1/26.

AI explanation

A standard pack of 52 cards contains exactly 2 black aces, which are the ace of spades and the ace of clubs. The probability of an event is the number of favorable outcomes divided by the total number of outcomes. Therefore, the probability is 2 divided by 52, which simplifies to 1/26.
