Answer: 2/13

=================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four cards labeled "7", and four cards that are aces. We have 4+4 = 8 cards that we want to find. This is out of 52 total.

The probability we're after is 8/52 = (4*2)/(4*13) = 2/13

2/13 = 0.1538 = 15.38% approximately
