Question
A card is drawn at random from a pack of 52 cards. Find the probability that the card drawn is:
neither a red card nor a queen.
Solution
This means that we have to leave the red cards and the queens out. There are 26 red cards and 2 queens (only black queens are counted since the reds are already counted among the red cards). Hence, the probability of drawing neither a red card nor a queen is: (52-26-2)/52 = 6/13
