Q:

If two cards are taken one after another without replacing from a pack of 52 cards. What is the probability for the two cards be Ace ?

A) 51/1221 B) 42/221
C) 1/221 D) 52/1245
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 1/221

Explanation:

Total Combination of getting a card from 52 cards = C152

Because there is no replacement, so number of cards after getting first card= 51

Now, Combination of getting an another card= C151


Total combination of getting 2 cards from 52 cards without replacement= (C152×C151


There are total 4 Ace in stack. Combination of getting 1 Ace is = C14

 

Because there is no replacement, So number of cards after getting first Ace = 3


Combination of getting an another Ace = C13

Total Combination of getting 2 Ace without replacement=C14×C13

Now,Probability of getting 2 cards which are Ace =C14×C13C152×C151 = 1/221.
