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

Total Combination of getting a card from 52 cards = C152

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

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.
