Answer:

2598960

Explanation:

We have given total number of cards =52

We have to find the number of poker hands of five cards

Five cards drawn form 52 cards in
^(52)C_5 ways

So total number of poker hands of five card
=^(52)C_5=(52!)/((52-5)!5!)=(52!)/(47!5!)=(52* 51* 50* 49* 48* 47!)/(5!47!)=2598960
