Answer:

If OR is exclusive in the question, meaning that Ace can either be high or low but not both would give you 36 possible combinations. However the question isn't exactly stated in a way that makes it easy to interpret this. Your logic is right though, and it could be an error on your sources part. The possible combos are

A 2 3 4 5

2 3 4 5 6

3 4 5 6 7

4 5 6 7 8

5 6 7 8 9

6 7 8 9 10

7 8 9 10 J

8 9 10 J Q

9 10 J Q K

10 J Q K A
