1)  number of cards that aren't : number of cards that are 3
we have 48 cards that arent 3 and 4 cards that are. that means that odds are:
12:1 of not drawing 3

2) fallow same logic. its just opposite.
1:12

3) same logic. but there are only 2 black 7 cards which means that odds are:
50:2 or
25:1

4) opposite of previous.
1:25
