In this case, we'll have to carry out several steps to find the solution.

Step 01:

Data:

deck of cards:

total cards = 52

Step 02:

probability (ace and a diamond):

probability (x) = favorable outcomes / total outcomes

favorable outcomes (ace and a diamond) = 1

total outcomes = 52

probability (ace and a diamond) = 1 / 52

The answer is:

The probability that the card is an ace and a diamond is 1 / 52
