Answer #1

Are you serious? You can’t figure this out?

You just take how many of each card there are in a deck and place it above the 52…

For example, there are four 8’s in a deck (one for each suit), so it would be 4/52

Now you do the rest…we’re not here to do your homework.

Answer #2

Also, it helps to specify what type of deck and, if it has them, whether or not you’ve left the jokers in.

Answer #3

…or 1/13

That’s part of ‘do your own homework’, lol

Answer #4

…heh… whoops… ñ___ñ

Answer #5

so it would be 4/52

…or 1/13
