Final answer:

Without knowing the value of '?', it is impossible to determine how many cards in the special deck have a value greater than '?'. The examples provided from standard deck probabilities are not directly applicable to this specific question.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question involves determining how many cards have a value greater than the unknown value denoted by '?'. Without additional information, specifically the value of '?', it is not possible to provide a factual and accurate answer. As we are dealing with rational numbers, the value of '?' could be less than, equal to, or greater than the numbers 0.25 and 0.48 given on the other cards. Without this critical piece of information, any answer would be speculative.

However, if we were to consider the information given in the examples related to a standard deck of 52 cards, such as probabilities of drawing face cards or simulations with a random number generator, these concepts could inform our understanding of probabilities and card values, but they do not provide the specific information needed to answer this question about the special deck of cards with rational numbers.
