Answer :
Given: a card is drawn at random from a well shuffled deck of 52 cards
To find: the probability of getting neither a red card nor a queen
Explanation: In a well shuffled deck of 52 cards
There are 13 + 13 = 26 red cards
And 4 queens, but out of these 2 queens are red in color
Hence the numbers of cards which are red cards, or a queen are 26 + 2 = 28 cards, so out of these 28 cards a card is drawn.
So, the probability of getting either a red card or a queen is
P (getting either a red card or a queen)
So, probability of getting neither a red card nor a queen is
1 - P (getting either a red card or a queen)
Hence the probability of getting neither a red card nor a queen is .
