if you draw one card from a standard deck, what is the probability that you draw a king or a queen? @CollateralDamage

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well in a deck there are 52 cards, 4 kings, and 4 queens correct? So for now we have 8/52. Now simplify.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is there any way to simplify 8/52?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

by 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok so if you simplify by two you now have 2/26, could you simplify further?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

SOrry i mean 4/26

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I believe you can but by what number?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8/52 can be simplified by 4 which give you 2/13. So there's your answer.
