Angelica has a deck of 52 cards with 4 suits (hearts, spades, diamonds, and clubs), and each suit has cards numbered 1–13. Calculate the complement of not picking a 6. The answer should be a fraction. Remember to simplify.(1 point)

The probability of not picking a 6 is the same as picking any other card besides a 6.
There are 4 suits, each with 13 cards, so there are a total of 52 cards in the deck. There is 1 card numbered 6 in each suit, so there are a total of 4 cards numbered 6 in the deck.
The probability of not picking a 6 is (52-4)/52 = 48/52 = 12/13.
Therefore, the complement of not picking a 6 is 12/13.
is that right
Apologies for the confusion in my previous response. Let's correct the calculation:
The probability of picking a 6 is 4/52 (Since there are 4 cards numbered 6 in the deck).
Therefore, the probability of not picking a 6 is 1 - 4/52 = 48/52 = 12/13.
So, the complement of not picking a 6 is indeed 12/13. Thank you for pointing out the mistake.
