A total of 3 cards are chosen at random, without replacing them, from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. What is the probability of choosing 3 king cards? 113⋅351⋅125=15525 113⋅113⋅113=313 452⋅352⋅252=417576 113⋅113⋅113=42197

Answer:
(1)/(5525)

Explanation:

The total number of cards =52

The number of kings in the cards = 4

If repetition is not allowed , then the total number of ways of choosing 3 cards will be :-


52*51*50=132600

The number of ways of choosing 3 kings will be :-


4*3*2=24

Now, the probability of choosing 3 king cards will be :-


(24)/(132600)=(1)/(5525)

Hence, the probability of choosing 3 king cards =
(1)/(5525)
