Hi

draw one card from a standard deck. Face cards are Js, Qs, Ks

A♥   2♥   3♥   4♥   5♥   6♥   7♥   8♥  9♥  10♥  J♥  Q♥  K♥ 					

A♦   2♦   3♦   4♦   5♦   6♦   7♦   8♦  9♦  10♦  J♦  Q♦  K♦					

A♠   2♠   3♠   4♠   5♠   6♠   7♠   8♠  9♠  10♠  J♠  Q♠  K♠  					

A♣   2♣   3♣   4♣   5♣   6♣   7♣   8♣  9♣  10♣  J♣  Q♣  K♣ 					



a) P(NOT a Diamond) = 1 - P(Diamond) = 1 - 13/52 = 3/4

b) P(NOT a Face card) = 1 - P(Face card) = 1 - 12/52 = = 40/52 = 10/13

c) P(NOT an Ace) = 1 - P(Ace)  = 1-4/52 = 12/13

d) P(NOT J or K) = 1 - P(J or K)  = 1 - 8/52 = 44/52
