You can put this solution on YOUR website! 6 cards are drawn from a standard deck without replacement. What is the probability that at least one of the cards drawn is a spade?
-----------------
P(at least one is a spade) = 1 - P(none is a spade)
= 1 - 39C6/52C6
= 1 - 3262623/20358520
= 1 - 0.1603
= 0.8397
