In a standard deck of cards,
a. what is the probability of getting a club?
b. What is the probability of getting a red queen?
=====================
a. There are 13 clubs out of 52 total cards, so P(club) = 13/52 = 1/4
b. There are 2 red queens out of a total of 52 cards, so P(red queen) = 2/52 = 1/26
