Given:

Total number of cards = 52

Number of face cards = 12

Number of heart cards = 13

Required: Probability of getting a heart or a face card

Explanation:

Number of cards that is both face cards and heart cards = 3

Number of cards that are either heart or face card

= 12 + 13 - 3

=22

Probability of getting a heart or face card = Number of favorable cases/ Total number of cases

[tex]=\frac{22}{52}=\frac{11}{26}[/tex]

Final Answer: The probability of getting a heart or face card is 11/26.
