Answer

The probability of drawing a card that is higher that a jack or lower that a 3 is .308

Work Step by Step

The queen and king are higher than a jack, and a 2 and ace are lower than a 3. Thus, there are 4 cards that satisfy our requirement. We calculate the probability as follows: P(queen or king or 2 ace) = (4)(.077) = .308
