Question

A card is drawn from the deck. What is the probability it is either black face card or a spade?

Answer 1

well how many cards are in the deck? and how many cards are either black face or a spade? take the number of cards that are black face or spade and divide them by the number of cards in the deck. That's how you get your answer

Answer 2

There's nothing more to the question itself but I left out the possible solutions. I thought the deck consisted of 52 cards with there being 13 spades and six black face cards. I added 13 and 3 and used the answer to get 19/52. However, according to the multiple choice it was wrong.
