There are 4 8's in a deck of 52 cards, and there are 26 black cards (13 spades + 13 clubs) in a deck of 52 cards.
To calculate the probability of being dealt an 8 or a black card, we need to find the total number of favorable outcomes (8 or black card) and divide it by the total number of possible outcomes (all 52 cards).
Total number of favorable outcomes = 4 (8's) + 26 (black cards) = 30
Total number of possible outcomes = 52
Probability = Favorable outcomes / Total outcomes = 30 / 52
This can be simplified further by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2:
Probability = 15 / 26
So, the probability of being dealt an 8 or a black card is 15/26.
