You can put this solution on YOUR website! One card is selected from a deck of playing cards. Determine the probability of selecting. A card greater than 9 or a black card.
-------------
# of cards greater than 9 (if you include the ace) = 4*5 = 20
# of black cards = 26
---
# of cards that satisfy both conditions: 26+20-10 = 36
----
P(card > 9 OR black) = 36/52 = 9/13
