You can put this solution on YOUR website!
an ordinary deck of 52 playing cards and determine the probability
of the stated event:
P(A card that is not a king and not a spade is drawn) = ?
-----------------------
# of "not a spade" = 39
---
Of the 39 # of "not a king": 36
----
P(A card that is not a king and not a spade is drawn) = 36/52
