The answer i got was 1 3/26

The cards are red or black, so the chance of getting black is 1/2

The cards less than nine is 1-8. There are 4 of each value, so 8 cards times 4 suits equals 32. The chance of getting a card less than nine is 32/52, or 8/13

1/2 plus 8/13 is 13/26 plus 16/ 26, which equals 29/26, or 1 3/26

That is how i solved it.Type your answer here...
