Find the probability of selecting a card that is less than 4:

\frac{2}{13}

Find the probability of a spade:

\frac{1}{4}

Find the probability of selecting a card that is less than 4 and a spade:

\frac{1}{26}

Use the Inclusion-Exclusion formula

P (X \lor Y) = P (X) + P (Y) - P (X \land Y)

= \frac{2}{13} + \frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{26}

\frac{2}{13} + \frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{26} = \frac{19}{52}

= \frac{19}{52}
