Possible Outcomes:
In a pack of 52 cards, there are 26 red cards (13 hearts and 13 diamonds) and 4 queens (1 queen of hearts, 1 queen of diamonds, 1 queen of clubs, and 1 queen of spades).
The total number of possible outcomes is 52 (since there are 52 cards in the pack).
Favorable Outcomes:
There is only 1 card that is both red and a queen, which is the queen of hearts.
The total number of favorable outcomes is 1.
Probability:
The probability of an event occurring is given by the formula:
Probability = (Number of favorable outcomes) / (Number of possible outcomes)
In this case, the probability of drawing a red and a queen card is:
Probability = 1 / 52
Simplifying the fraction, we get:
Probability = 1/52
Thus, the correct answer is option 'A' - 1/26.

As we know, in 52 cards there r 26 black cards nd 26 red cards. each colour cards contains 1 to 10 no. cards nd 4 jack (J), 4 Queen (Q), 4 king (K) nd 4 (A) cards. these cards r known as ace cards. Now, the qus. is to find the probability that the card drawn is red nd a queen card. So, to get a red card, we have to subtract no. of black color cards (26) from the total no. of cards (52)... So the ans. we get is 26 red cards. Now, to get a queen card...As it is not mentioned induviually that which type of card of queen is to be drawn i.e spade, diamond, etc.... we have to consider only 1 card of queen from all red cards. so, the ratio becomes 1:52 ( no. of queen card drawn from the total no. of cards. that's it, the final ans. is 1/26 (1 red coloured card of queen nd 26 red coloured cards). hope so it will help uh... nd sorry, coz i can't write in a more easy way than this...
