Question

Answer 1

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

In a regular 52 card deck, 26 are black (clubs or spades).  Additionally, there are two red jacks (diamonds and hearts).  This equals 28/52.  As a probability, it would be 28/52=14/26=7/13.  This could also be expressed as a percentage or decimal.  0.538 or 53.8%.  But the question asks how many ways can she choose a jack or black card, so I’m assuming they don’t want the probability, just the number, which is 28.
