Let's go through the probability questions based on a standard deck of 52 cards.

1. **Probability of getting a 2 of Hearts**:
   - There is only **one 2 of Hearts** in the deck.
   - The total number of cards is 52.
   - So, the probability \( P(\text{2 of Hearts}) \) is:
     \[
     P(\text{2 of Hearts}) = \frac{1}{52}
     \]

2. **Probability of getting a Diamond or a Heart**:
   - There are **13 Diamonds** and **13 Hearts**, making a total of \( 13 + 13 = 26 \) red cards.
   - The probability \( P(\text{Diamond or Heart}) \) is:
     \[
     P(\text{Diamond or Heart}) = \frac{26}{52} = \frac{1}{2}
     \]

3. **Probability of getting a number smaller than 2 (counting the Ace as 1)**:
   - There are 4 Aces in the deck (one in each suit: Hearts, Diamonds, Spades, and Clubs).
   - The only number smaller than 2 is the Ace.
   - Therefore, the probability \( P(\text{Ace}) \) is:
     \[
     P(\text{Ace}) = \frac{4}{52} = \frac{1}{13}
     \]

Let me know if you'd like further explanation on any of these, or if you have more questions!

### Follow-up questions:
1. What is the probability of drawing a face card (Jack, Queen, or King)?
2. How many red cards are there in a standard deck?
3. What is the probability of drawing a black card?
4. What is the probability of drawing a card greater than 10?
5. What is the probability of drawing a spade?

### Tip:
When calculating probability, always remember that the probability of an event is the ratio of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes.

If you select a card at random from a deck of 52 cards, what is the probability of getting: 1) A 2 of Hearts? 2) A Diamond or Heart? 3) A number smaller than 2 (counting Ace as 1)?

Calculate the probability of drawing a 2 of Hearts, a Diamond or Heart, or a number smaller than 2 from a standard deck of 52 cards. This problem explores basic probability concepts and is suitable for students in Grades 6-8.
