A standard deck of cards contains 52 cards. One card is selected from the deck.
​(a)
Compute the probability of randomly selecting a six or three.
​(b)
Compute the probability of randomly selecting a six or three or nine.
​(c)
Compute the probability of randomly selecting a queen or diamond.

Answer 1

There's 4 6's and 4 3's
What's my next step in solving this problem?

Answer 2

Would I divide 6/52*3/52?

Answer 3

I think the problem is composed of mutually exclusive events, so if I were you I would add individual probabilities. Not 100% sure

Answer 4

a: 8/52
b: 12/52
c: 13+3=16, 16/52

Answer 5

Can you explain that?

Answer 6

Probability of getting a six: 4/52
Probability of getting a three: 4/52

P(6 or 3) = 4/52 + 4/52 = 8/52 or 2/13


Same thing you have to do with the rest.
