If a card is chosen from a standard deck of cards, what is the probability of getting a diamond (♦) or a club (♣)?

Correct answer: A. 26/52=1/2

  • A. 26/52=1/2
  • B. 13/52
  • C. 20/52
  • D. 12/52

Explanation

A standard deck has 13 diamonds and 13 clubs, and these suits do not overlap. Therefore there are 26 favourable cards out of 52, giving 26/52=1/2.
