In a standard deck, there are a total of 52 cards and 4 aces

If the first card is drawn, the probability that an ace is selected is


(4)/(52)

If the second card is drawn without replacement, the total number of card will be reduced to 51 and there will be 3 aces

Then the probability of selecting the second ace will be


(3)/(51)

To find the probability that both cards are aces =>


(4)/(52)\text{ x }(3)/(51)\text{ =}(12)/(2652)=(1)/(221)

Option J is correct
