Given:

The total number of cards is 52.

To find:

The probability of getting a red 7

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 red 7 cards in the deck of cards.

So, the number of favourable outcomes is 2.


n(E)=2

The probability formula is,


\begin{gathered} P(E)=(n(E))/(n(S)) \\ =(2)/(52) \\ =(1)/(26) \end{gathered}

Therefore, the probability of getting a red 7 is,


(1)/(26)

Final answer:

The probability of getting a red 7 is,


(1)/(26)
