A poker hand consists of 5 cards dealt at random without replacement from a standard deck of 52 cards of which 26 are red and the rest black. A poker hand is dealt. Find the chance that the hand contains three red cards and two black cards.

OpenStudy (jack1):

number of ways to get 3 red cards = 2600 number of ways to get 2 black cards = 325 Total number of ways you could get 3 red and 2 black = 845,000

OpenStudy (jack1):

total number of possiblities in 5 card poker = 2,598,960

OpenStudy (jack1):

so answer = 845000/2598960 so around 32.5% chance
