# Thread: Drawing cards out of deck

1. ## Drawing cards out of deck

So, I am having trouble with this problem....

Emily draws a card from a standard 52-deck. Let A, B, C be the events:
A: Emily draws a club.
B: Emily draws a red card.
C: Emily draws a picture card (Jack, Queen, or King).

What is the probability of at least two of the three events occur?

I have tried but wasn't very successful....i don't think. I have done a problem similar i think and i had to do the probability it wouldn't happen and then just subtract it from 1. I tried it but don't think i did it correctly.

Any help is very appreciated!

Notation: $P(ABC)$ stands for the probability that all three events occur.
Of course $P(ABC)=0$ because a club is not red.
$P(AC)=\frac{3}{52}$ because there are three clubs face cards.

"What is the probability of at least two of the three events occur?"
$P(AB)+P(AC)+P(BC)+P(ABC)=?$
