Here's the way I see it: 5 cards are drawn, one by one, without replacement. Half (or 26) of the original deck are black and half (26) are white.
P (5 are not black) = P (5 are red)
P (5 are not black) = P (first card is red) * P (second card is red) * P (third card is red) * P (fourth card is red) * P (fifth card is red) =
(26/52) * (25/51) * (24/50) * (23/49) * (22/48) = 0.025 (answer)
We start with 52 cards. We draw one, leaving 51 cards, 25 of which are red. And so on.
