A modern deck of cards contains fifty-two cards (thirteen in each of four suits). The four suits are hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades. Hearts and diamonds are red, and clubs and spades are black. Each suit consists of cards labeled 2 through 10, followed by jack, queen, king, and ace. Face cards are the jack, queen, and king; and picture cards are the jack, queen, king, and ace.

Determine how many cards, in an ordinary deck of fifty-two, fit the description.
spades or 6's

Respuesta :

well since there are 13 cards per suit, you start off with 13 cards. then since there are 4 suits that are able to be used, but one of those 4 is the spades suit. so you have 3 6's that can be used besides the spades. so you are left with a total of 16 cards that fit the description.
