A card is selected from a deck of 52 playing cards.
Find the probability of selecting
· an even number ten or less given the card is a not a diamond.
# of ways to succeed = 15
# of possible outcomes = 52
P(condition) = 15/52
-------
· an Ace, given that the card is black.
# of ways to succeed: 8
# of possible outcomes: 52
P(condition) = 8/52 = 2/13
--------
· a spade given the card is red
# of ways to succed = 0
# of possible outcomes = 52
P(condition) = 0/52 = 0
