Answer : 3. "1/221"
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.
