    Step-by-step explanation:

    There are 4 kings in a 52 card deck.

    There are 4 queens in a 52 card deck.

    There are 8 chances out of 52 that you will get a king or a queen.

    8/52 reduces to 2 / 13 when you cancel out 4 from the top and 4 from the bottom of the probability fraction.
