Answer:

8/13

Explanation:

There are total 26 red cards in the deck of 52 cards.

There are also 12 face cards in the deck ( which is 6 of them are red, while 6 of them are black)

Since we only need either one of them, 26 + 6 = 32

The probability of drawn a card that either red or a face card is 32/52

The simplest form of this fraction is 8/13.
