There are 52 cards. Of this, there are 4 aces (one of each of the four suits) and 4 kings. There are 4+4 = 8 cards that are either an ace or a king (but not both). Note that the events "drawing an ace" and "drawing a king" are mutually exclusive. Being mutually exclusive means its impossible to have both events occur simultaneously for any single card.

So there are 8 cards we want (ace or king) out of 52 total

Dividing the two values, and reducing fully, gives:
8/52 = (4*2)/(4*13) = 2/13

The final answer as a fraction is 2/13

Answer:

In conclusion, dreams are the driving theme and characterization in the novel. They help explain each character's motivation for the actions they take and the way they feel. All of the characters have a obstacles in their life stopping them from reaching their goal. Authors use dreams to give their characters something to live for and strive for. Without the character's dreams and goals for the future, the characters would have nothing to work towards and they would be much less complex
