Find the probability of you draw a king:

\frac{1}{13}

Find the probability of a queen:

\frac{1}{13}

Since the events are disjoint, Use the formula

P (X_{1} \lor X_{2} \lor \dots \lor X_{k}) = P (X_{1}) + P (X_{2}) + \dots + P (X_{k})

= \frac{1}{13} + \frac{1}{13}

\frac{1}{13} + \frac{1}{13} = \frac{2}{13}

= \frac{2}{13}
