    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
