Answer by Theo(13342) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
a regular deck of cards has the following:

4 suits (spades, clubs, diamonds, hearts)

4 kings (one of each suit)
4 queens (one of each suit)
4 jacks (one of each suit)
4 aces (one of each suit)
36 cards numbered 2 through 10 (9 of each suit)

if the numbered cards are divisible by 2, then they are even.

that would be 2,4,6,8,10 = 5 of each suit * 4 suits = 20 total.

the probability of getting a card that isn't a face card and isn't an ace and is divisible by 2 is therefore 20/52 = 10/26 = 5/13.
