Answer» There are 4 suits in a standard deck 52 cards.Number of ways of selecting 4 cards out of 13 cards( i.e. a suit) are 13!/(4!9!)Note that we can choose 4 cards out of any 4 possible suits.So total ways become: P = 4 * ( 13!/9!4! ) Also, no of ways to select 4 cards out of 52 cards are: Q = 52!/(4!48!) Hence The probability is: P/Q = (4*13!/4!9!)/(52!/4!48!) |
