A Problem on Probability

Two cards are drawn randomly from a pack of 52 well-shuffled playing cards, one after one, without replacement. Suppose the event A A is the two cards are of the same suit while the event B B is one of two cards, or both, is a Jack, Queen or King. If P ( A B ) = u v P(A \cup B) = \frac{u}{v} where u u and v v are positive integers and gcd ( u , v ) = 1 \gcd(u,v)=1 , find u + v u+v .
