Answer: 2/3.

Step-by-step explanation: When you add all the spades, hearts, clubs, and diamonds cards together, you get 30 in total. 1/3 of the 30 cards in total are diamonds, so the other 2/3 can be drawn as well. The probability of not choosing a diamond card is 2/3, since the remaining 1/3 is all diamonds.

Have a great day! :)
