Answer:

Explanation:

You can get 10 with a pair of dice with:
4 + 6, 6 + 4, 5 + 5

out of a possibile 36 results

There are 52 cards in a standard deck of cards. Reds make up half of them (hearts and diamonds) , meaning theres a 50/50 chance of pulling red

10/36 * 1/2 = 5/36 chance of throwing 10 + pulling red
