Respuesta :

There are 13 diamonds, and 4*3=12 face cards, of which 3 are diamonds.
So total of "diamond or face card" is 13+12-3=22.
=> 
Probability of drawing a diamond OR a face card from a full 52-card deck is
22/52=11/26.

Answer:

[tex]\frac{11}{26}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of cards in the deck = 52

Total number of face cards = 12

Total number of diamond cards = 13

Total number of diamond face card = 3

So, total number of ways become = [tex]12+13-3=22[/tex]

These are out of 52.

Hence, it could be a diamond or a face card = [tex]\frac{22}{52}=\frac{11}{26}[/tex]
