As shown above, a classic deck of cards is made up of 52 cards, 26 are black, 26 are red.

Leave answers as reduced fractions. a. If a card is randomly selected, what is the probability of drawing a(n) 7 of one suit? b. If a card is randomly selected, what is the probability of drawing club or diamond? c. If a card is randomly selected, what is the probability of drawing a number smaller than 4 (counting the ace as a 1)?
