    A card is drawn from a standard deck of 52 cards. What is the probability of drawing an ace or a 6?

    There are 4 Ace's in a standard 52 card deck. There are 4 6's as well.
    So we have 4 + 4 = 8 possible cards out of 52:
    8/52

    To simplify, we type this into our search engine and we get:
    2/13
