Question

One Card is drawn from a deck of 52. What is the probability? Whats the probability that it is a diamond?

Answer 1

The probability of drawing that specific card is `1/52`
The probability of drawing a diamond is `1/4`

Explanation:

Each card is unique; therefore, the chance of drawing a specific card is `1/52`. There is one of each card over a total number of `52` cards.

Cards are either diamonds, spades, hearts, or clubs. There are an equal amount of each in a standard `52` card deck. There are `13` of each kind.

To find the probability of drawing a diamond, put the total number of cards that are diamonds over the total number of cards.

`13/52=1/4`
