Solution:

Given:

$\begin{gathered} total\text{ cards}=52 \\ number\text{ of kings = 4} \\ number\text{ of diamonds = 13} \end{gathered}$

From the numbers, the number of king and diamond cards = 1

Hence, the probability that the card is a king and a diamond is;

$P(King\text{ and diamond\rparen}=(1)/(52)$
