Answer:

Probability(ace or a king) = ([tex]\frac{2}{13}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of drawing an ace from the 52 cards is [tex]\frac{4}{52}[/tex]

The probability of drawing a king from the 52 cards is  [tex]\frac{4}{52}[/tex]

When you see the word 'or' in probability; you add the two outcomes.

I.e the probability of drawing an ace or a king from a deck of cards = [tex]\frac{4}{52}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{4}{52}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{52}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{13}[/tex]
