Answer

The probability that a card drawn randomly from a standard deck of 52 cards is a red queen is \(\boxed{\frac{1}{26}}\).

Steps

Step 1 :In a standard deck of 52 cards, there are 2 red queens (one from the heart suit and one from the diamond suit).

Step 2 :So, the probability of drawing a red queen is the number of favorable outcomes (2 red queens) divided by the total number of outcomes (52 cards).

Step 3 :The probability that a card drawn randomly from a standard deck of 52 cards is a red queen is \(\boxed{\frac{1}{26}}\).
