Ms. Sue, number of cards greater than 9 = 4 (suits) * 4 (10, j, Q, K) = 16
but that includes the 8 black cards greater than 9 already counted in the black cards. What is the final answer? I'm lost :(

You're looking for a card greater than 9 or a black card.
Which cards are considered greater than 9 depends upon the game you're playing. All of the games I play include the Ace as a high card.

ooooooh ok
The number of cards greater than 9 or black= the number of cards greater then 9 + the number of black cards - the number of black cards greater then 9
=5*4 + 26 - 5*2=36
Probability=36/52
=5*4 + 26 - 5*2=36
Probability=36/52
what is the answer if the ace is considered a low card?
