Answer 1

Answer: $\frac{3}{13}$, or ~23.07%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 52 cards in your average deck.

For this question, you need the numbers of the cards in the deck. There are four of each number from 2 through 10, and four aces, jacks, queens, and kings.

Considering there are four 6s, four 7s, and four 8s, there are 12 cards that fit the description.

Divide 12 by the total number of cards in the deck, 52, to get your answer.
