Answer:
15.38%
Step-by-step explanation:
We know
- There are four suits (hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades).
- Each suit has thirteen ranks (Ace, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Jack, Queen, King).
- There are four cards that are 8 or 5, so the total is 8 possibilities.
What is the probability that one card is either an 8 or a 5?
First, we find the total number of cards.
13 · 4 = 52 cards total
Then, we take
(8 ÷ 52) · 100 ≈ 15.38%
So, the probability is 15.38%.
