Question 1178532: A card is dealt from a 52 deck. What is the probability that this card is:
A. A diamond AND a two?
B. A diamond OR a two?
Explain your answers. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! the 2 of diamonds is unique so the probability is 1/52.
-
A diamond occurs 13 times
A two occurs 4 times
One of those is the 2 of diamonds, so that has to be removed to avoid double counting.
The probability is 16/52 or 4/13.
