Final Answer:
The probability of drawing a black five of diamonds from a standard deck is 0.0002.
Step-by-step explanation:
Identify relevant sets:
Total cards in the deck: 52
Black cards: 26 (clubs and spades)
Five cards: 4 (one in each suit)
Black five of diamonds: 1
Calculate the probability:
Probability of drawing a black card: 26 black cards / 52 total cards = 13/26
Probability of drawing a five: 4 five cards / 52 total cards = 1/13
Combine probabilities (independent events):
Since drawing the card color and the card number are independent events, we multiply their probabilities:
Probability of drawing a black five of diamonds = (13/26) * (1/13) = 1/52 = 0.0192
Adjust for specific card:
There is only one black five of diamonds, so the final probability is the probability of drawing any black five multiplied by the number of black fives:
Probability of drawing a black five of diamonds = 0.0192 * 1 = 0.0002
Therefore, the probability of drawing a black five of diamonds from a standard deck is 0.0002.
