For Math, the question is:

What is the probability of a a black card or a card less than 10 (aces not included] in a deck of 52 cards?

I came up with 25/273 but it does not sound right. Is my answer correct? Thanks.

  1. Previous answerer is right except he forgot to excluded aces.  So instead of 18 cards less than 10 there are 16. 26+16 = 42

    42/52 = 21/26


  2. No. Black cards would take up 26 of the cards. Cards less than 10 but not black take up 18. 26+18=44. there is a 44/52 chance and You simplyfy it into 11/13
