0% because the deck only has 9s, 10s, jacks, queens, kings, and aces. There is no others cards accept those. So you cannot get a 4 of hearts because it’s not in the deck.

There are 6 hearts in the 24 card deck. The probability that the first player who is dealt a 5 card hand gets 4 hearts is given by:

(6C4*18C1)/(24C5)=0.00635
The answer is: 0.00635 or 0.635%
