Quizplus · Accepted Answer

a) The probability that none of the 5 cards are queens is calculated by first finding the number of ways to choose 5 cards from the 48 non-queen cards (48 choose 5) and dividing by the total number of ways to choose 5 cards from the deck (52 choose 5). This gives a probability of 0.6588. b) The probability that all 5 cards are queens is 0 because there are only 4 queens in a deck, making it impossible to draw 5 queens.
