Answer 1

Answer: The probability that you are not dealt a 6 would be 12/13 or about 92.31%.

In a deck of cards, there are 52 cards. That number will become the denominator of our problem.

Now, how many cards of the 52 are not 6's. Since there are 4 6's, that means there are 48 cards that are not 6's. 52 - 4 = 48

Our probability is 48/52 or 12/13 or about 92.31%.
