You can put this solution on YOUR website!
There are 13 diamonds in a pack of cards and 4 queens. BUT one of those queens is the queen of diamonds which has already been taken account of in the 13 diamonds. That gives a total of 16 cards in the pack which are diamonds and queens.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the chance (probability) that you could choose one of those is 16 out of the 52 cards that are in the pack. (16 over 52)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Cancelling this down (simplifying) gives 4 over 13.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(Sorry, but I don't know how to type fractions in this answer box!)
