Answer:


(2)/(13)

Explanation:

Our sample space is the total number of cards in a deck, n(S)=52

Event A: Event that she chooses a three card

Number of 3 cards in a deck, n(A)=4

Event B: Event that she chooses a seven card.

Number of 7 cards in a deck, n(B)=4

In Probability, P(A or B)=P(A)+P(B)


P(A)=(n(A))/(n(S))= (4)/(52)= (1)/(13)\\P(B)=(n(B))/(n(S))= (4)/(52)= (1)/(13)\\P(A\: or \: B) = (1)/(13)+ (1)/(13)\\= (2)/(13)

The probability that Zhi Qing chooses is either a three or a seven is 2/13.
