Detailed explanation-1: -Randomly picking a green card from a standard deck of playing cards. A standard deck of playing cards does not have green cards, so the probability is 0. Half of the cards from a standard deck of playing cards are red, so the probability is 0.5.
Detailed explanation-2: -A four-color deck (US) or four-colour pack (UK) is a deck of playing cards identical to the standard French deck except for the color of the suits. In a typical English four-color deck, hearts are red and spades are black as usual, but clubs are green and diamonds are blue.
Detailed explanation-3: -Assuming there are four “green” cards the probability of getting a green card is the same as of getting a king (0.077).
Detailed explanation-4: -Deck of Cards Questions-There are 52 cards in a standard deck of cards-There are 4 of each card (4 Aces, 4 Kings, 4 Queens, etc.)
Detailed explanation-5: -In a deck of cards, there are 6 red-faced cards. So, the probability of drawing a red-faced card is 6 out of 52 cards. Thus, the probability of drawing a red face card from a deck of cards is 6/52 = 3/26.
