There are 4 aces and 4 kings in a standard deck of 52 cards. You pick onecard at random. What is the probability of selecting an ace or a king. Explain your reasoning.

The odds of picking a single card out of 52 is:

1/52

The odds of picking an Ace is:

4/52 (since there are 4 aces in a single deck)

The odds of picking an ace or a king is:

8/52 (since there are 4 aces and 4 kings in a single deck, 4+4=8_

8/52 can be simplified to 2/13

Answer=2/13
