Total number of possible outcomes = 52

Number of favourable outcomes (Getting a black queen) = 2

P(Getting a black queen) = $\dfrac{\text{Number of favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of possible outcomes}}$

= $\dfrac{2}{52}$

= $\dfrac{1}{26}$

Hence, the probability of getting a black queen is $\dfrac{1}{26}$ .
