Answer 3

the dealer will "bust" if the sum of their cards is 22 or more

right now the dealer has 16 points (queen is 10, plus 6 makes 16)

so we have to figure out the probability of getting a new card worth at least 6 points

(a quick google search tells me aces are worth either 1 or 11 depending on player choice so it is to the dealer's advantage to count ace as 1)

we can find the probability of NOT busting (drawing ace,2,3,4,5) and subtracting that from 1

probability of drawing an ace,2,3,4,5 --> there are 4 of each of these cards, so 20 of these cards out of 50, so 20/50

making the true probability 1-(20/50) = 30/50 (I am not 100% sure about this so I will double check w/ someone)
