Answer:

15.38% or 0.1538

To know:

[] There are 4 cards that are 8s in a standard 52-card deck

[] There are 4 aces in a standard 52-card deck

Explanation:

[] Wanted outcomes divided by possible outcomes

4 + 4 = 8 wanted outcomes

52 possible outcomes

8 / 52 ≈ 0.1538

[] Converting to a percentage

0.1538 * 100 = 15.38%
