Answer 1

First one is 26/46

Second one is 33/46

Hope this helps

Answer 2

Answer:

(1) 13/23 (2) 33/46

Step-by-step explanation:  

Total number of cards in a deck = 52  

Total number of cards removed = 2 + 2 + 2 = 6 black cards

Total number of cards left = 52 - 6 = 46

Find the probability of getting a red card:

Number of red card = 26

P(red card) = 26/46 = 13/23

Find the probability that it is not a diamond card:

Number of diamond card = 13

P(diamond card) = 13/46

P(not a diamond card) = 1 - 13/46 = 33/46

Answer: (1) 13/23 (2) 33/46
