Answer:

so first you would do


( (4)/(52) ) * ( (3)/(51) ) * ( (2)/(50) )

  1. So since you are not replacing your cards. you first will have a 4 out of 52 chance to draw an ace. then not replacing your card you will now have a 3 out of 51 chance and so on.

so you will have a 0.0181% that all three cards drawn are aces.
