    Clearly, the black cards are either clubs or spades while the red cards are either diamonds or hearts.Let the number of spades be x. Then, number of clubs = (7 - x).Number of diamonds = 2 x number of spades = 2x;Number of hearts = 2 x number of diamonds = 4x.Total number of cards = x + 2x + 4x + 7 - x = 6x + 7.Therefore 6x + 7 = 13 6x = 6 x - 1.Hence, number of clubs = (7 - x) = 6.
