An unbiased coin is tossed. If the result is a head, a pair of unbiased dice is rolled and the number obtained by adding the numbers on the two faces is noted. If the result is a tail, a card from a well shuffled pack of eleven cards numbered $2, 3, 4,.......,12$ is picked and the number on the card is noted. The probability that the noted number is either $7$ or $8$, is
