Question

There are 52 cards in a standard deck, and 26 of them are red. What percent of the cards in a standard deck are red?

Answer 1

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 26/50

Then rewrite 0.5 as a percentage.

Answer 2

26/51

Half of the 52 cards are black, and if you remove the one red card there are only 51 cards left, so the answer is 26 lack cards/52 total cards.
