You are dealt one card from a 52 -card deck. Find the probability that you are dealt a heart
or a non-picture card. 0 of 1
The probability is .
(Type an integer or a simplified fraction.)

To find the probability of being dealt a heart or a non-picture card, let’s break it down. There are 13 hearts in a deck, and there are 40 non-picture cards (10 cards each from hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades). However, among the non-picture cards, 10 are hearts. So, we must be careful to count only the unique outcomes.

Using the formula for probability:

Where:

So, we have:

Plugging them into the equation:

So the probability is .
