Q12 of 31 Page 7

Determine the number of 5 card combination if there is exactly one king in each combination?

As there are 4 kings in a deck,


Number of ways to choose a king is 4C1.


Now out of 52 cards if 4 kings are removed number of cards will be 48.


So now to make combination of 5 cards, 4 more cards are needed.


So, number of ways choosing 5 cards out of 48 cards is 48C4.


Total number of ways = 4C1 × 48C4







= 778320
