(a) The probability of drawing a diamond from a well-shuffled ordinary pack of cards is 1/4. There are 13 diamonds in a deck of 52 cards, so the probability is 13/52, which simplifies to 1/4.(b) The probability of drawing a red card from a well-shuffled ordinary pack of cards is 1/2. There are 26 red cards (13 hearts and 13 diamonds) in a deck of 52 cards, so the probability is 26/52, which simplifies to 1/2.(c) The probability of drawing a queen from a well-shuffled ordinary pack of cards is 1/13. There are 4 queens in a deck cards, so the probability is 4/52, which simplifies to 1/13.
