You can put this solution on YOUR website! One card is selected at random from a standard deck of 52 cards. Determine the probability that the card selected is a red card or a picture card
-----------------
P(red OR picture) = P(red) + P(picture) - P(red AND picture)
---
P(red OR picture) = 26/52 + 16/52 - 8/52 = 34/52
