There are 2 red jacks in a deck of 52 cards. Therefore, P(red jack) is 2/52 or 1/26.

What is the probability that a spade or a jack is drawn out of 52 cards?
The probability of drawing a jack is 4 in 52. The probability of drawing a spade is 13 in 52. The probability of drawing a jack or a spade is 4 + 13 - 1 in 52, with the -1 compensating for one of the jacks also being a spade. 4 + 13 - 1 in 52 is 16 in 52, which is also 4 in 13, or about 0.3077.
What are three events in which the probability is 1?
If an event has a probability of 1, it will happen no matter what. The probability of rolling a number x, such that 1 ≤ x ≤ 6, on a standard 6 sided die, is 1. The probability of the temperature being > absolute 0, is 1. With a standard 52 card deck of card, P(drawing a spade or drawing a club or drawing a heard or drawing a diamond) is 1. In these situations, there is no variable that can affect the event. It will happen no matter what.
What is the probability of being dealt?
There is insufficient information in the question to answer it properly. Please restate the question.
What is the probility of drawing a red spade from a deck of cards?
0% there are only black spades which have a probability of 25% of being drawn.
What is the probability of being dealt a club out of a standard deck of cards?
There are 13 clubs in a standard deck of 52 cards. The probability, then, of drawing club is 13 in 52, or 1 in 4, or 0.25.
What is the probability of drawing a Jack on the first draw and a heart on the second draw from a deck of 52 cards?
The probability of drawing a Jack on the first draw from a standard deck of cards is 4 in 52. The probability of drawing a heart on the second draw is 13 in 51 (if the Jack was not a heart) or 12 in 51 (if the Jack was a heart). Multiply these two probabilities together, and you get 52 in 2652, or about 0.01961 for the case of the Jack not being a heart, and 48 in 2651, or about 0.01811 for the case of the Jack being a heart.
If you draw one card from a normal deck of cards what is the probability of drawing a jack queen or king?
Probability of Jack being drawn is 4/52 since there are 4 Jacks and 52 cards in the deck. Also, the probability of drawing a Queen and King is 4/52. So, if you draw one card from a normal deck of cards the probability of drawing a jack or queen or king is 4/52 + 4/52 + 4/52 = 12/52 or 3/13 or 0.2308.
What is the Probability of getting a 6 of clubs and 7 of clubs?
If you are drawing two cards from a full deck of cards (without jokers) then the probability will depend upon whether the the first card is replaced before the second is drawn, but the probability will also be different to being dealt a hand whilst playing Bridge (or Whist), which will again be different to being dealt a hand at Canasta. Without the SPECIFIC context of the two cards being got, I cannot give you a more specific answer.
What is the probability of being either a supervisor or advisor working for a hospital. is this a two part questiona or one question only?
It is one question.
How do you explain explain?
By explaining when being asked to explain you should give in all the details of the question or topic which is given by a teacher/lecture.
How many ways can a hand of five cards consisting of four cards from one suit and one card from another suit be drawn from a standard deck of cards I think combination?
The probability of five cards being four cards from one suit and one card from another suit is the same as the probability of drawing four cards from one suit multiplied by the probability of drawing one card from another suit, multiplied by 5 (for each of the possible positions this other card can be drawn in). The probability of drawing four cards from one suit is 12/51 x 11/50 x 10/49. The probability of drawing a fifth card from another suit is 39/48. All these numbers multiplied together (and multiplied by 5) come to 0.0429. So the probability of drawing a hand of five cards with four cards from one suit and one card from another is 5.29%
What is the probability of not rolling a 5?
Even if I assume that you mean probability and not probility, the question cannot be answered since there is no information as to what is being rolled. For a normal tetrahedral die, the answer is 1.
