Two cards are drawn at random from a pack of \( 52 \) cards. The probability of these two being
'Aces" is

  1. A \( \frac{1}{26} \)
  2. B \( \frac{1}{221} \)
  3. C \( \frac{1}{2} \)
  4. D \( \frac{1}{13} \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \( \frac{1}{221} \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Total number of Aces in a pack is \( 4 . \)
So, required probability is
\( P(2 \) aces \( )=\frac{{ }^{4} C_{2}}{{ }^{52} C_{2}} \) \( =\frac{4 \times 3}{52 \times 51}=\frac{1}{221} \)
