Question

Please help me yall feedback would be appreciated!!

Answer 1

Explanation:

This is an or question. You can choose either one; both are possible and the smaller probability add.

Red 5: 2/52

There are 26 red cards. 2 of them are 5s (diamonds / hearts). You are still drawing from a complete pack of 52

Black 6: 2 / 52

There are 26 black cards. 2 of them are 6s (Clubs / spades). You are still drawing from a complete pack of 52

2/52 + 2/52 = 4/52

Divide top and bottom by 4

4/4 // 52 /4

1 / 13

Answer: 1/13 or 0.077

Answer 2

1/13

Explanation:

There are 2 red 5's in a standard 52-card deck ( a red 5 of hearts and a red 5 of diamonds ) and then there are 2 black 6's in a 52-card deck ( a black 6 of clubs and a black 6 of spades )

So in total there are 4 cards that we want out of 52.

So the probability of getting a red five or a black six is 4/52 or 1/13
