Gopi buys a fish from a shop for his aquarium. The shopkeeper takes out one fish at random from a tank containing $5$ male fish and $8$ female fish. What is the probability that the fish taken out is a male fish?

$P ($ Male fish $) = \frac{Number of male fish}{Total number of fish}$

$P ($ Male fish $) = \frac{5}{13}$
