You randomly select one card from a 52-card deck. Find the probability of selecting the four of spades or the ace of clubs. (Type answer an integer or a fraction. Simplify your answer.)

1/26

Step-by-step explanation:

There is 1 four of spades, and 1 ace of clubs.

So the probability is 2/52, or 1/26.

P(four of spades or ace of clubs)= 1/26

Step-by-step explanation:

In a deck of 52 cards, there is one four of spaces and one ace of clubs. we want to find the probability of selecting those cards.

P(four of spades or ace of clubs)=four of spades+ace of clubs/total cards

There is 1 four of spades and 1 ace of clubs. 1+1=2

P(four of spades or ace of clubs)=2/total cards

There are 52 total cards in a deck.

P(four of spades or ace of clubs)=2/52

This fraction can be simplified. Both the numerator (top number) and denominator (bottom number) can be divided by 2.

P(four of spades or ace of clubs)= (2/2) / (52/2)

P(four of spades or ace of clubs)= 1/26
