Answer:

1/26

Explanation:

There are 4 Jacks in every deck of cards, one for each suit. Therefore your chances of drawing a Jack, or any other card for that matter, are 4 in 52. So, the first probability for cards is 4/52.

Now, for the coin, the probability is 1/2.

So, the probability of getting Jack and hits is 4/52 X 1/2 = 1/26.
