Answer:

1/26

Explanation:

There is only one 6 of hearts and only one ace of diamonds.

The probability of selecting the 6 of hearts is thus 1/52, and that of selecting the ace of diamonds is also 1/52.

The probability of selecting the 6 of hearts or the ace of diamonds is the SUM of these two results: 1/52 + 1/52 = 2/52 = 1/26.
