Answer to probability question Part 2

I was asked if the chances of flipping two same colour cards at the same time would be equal to 1/3. The answer is yes. There are 4c2 (6) number of possible combinations for flipping 2 cards. Only two of the six combinations are made up of cards of the same number. Therefore it is true that the chance of flipping two cards of the same colour is equal to 2/6 or 1/3.
