Explanation

There are 2 black kings (King of Spades and King of Clubs) in a deck of 52 cards. Probability = 2/52 = 1/26.

AI explanation

Using the classical definition of probability, the required probability is the number of black kings divided by the total number of cards. A standard deck contains 2 black kings (spades and clubs) out of 52 total cards. The probability is 2 divided by 52, which simplifies to 1/26.
