Kyra, there are 4 suits in a standard deck of cards namely Clubs, Hearts, Spades and Diamond. Each suit has a "5" ,so there is a total of four 5s. P(taking a 5)= Number of favorable outcomes divided by Total number of outcomes. So it is 4/52 which is reduced to1/13 since 4 is a common factor to both 4 and 52.
