You can put this solution on YOUR website! A card is drawn from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards. What is the probability of drawing a face card or a 3?
-----------------------------------------------------
Since no face card is a 3 the events are independent.
P(face card or 3) = P(face card) + P(3)
= (12/52) + (4/52) = 16/52
