Question

You are dealt one card from a standard 52-card deck. Find the probability of being dealt the queen of diamonds.

Answer 1

We need to find the probability of being dealt the queen of diamonds when you are dealt one card from a standard 52-card deck.

A standard deck has four queens. And just one of them is a queen of diamonds.

Thus, 1 out of 52 cards is the queen of diamonds.

Therefore, the probability of being dealt the queen of diamonds is given by 1 divided by 52:

$\frac{1}{52}$
