Ohhhh nasty !  What a delightful little problem !

The first card can be any one of the 52 in the deck.  For each one ...
The second card can be any one of the 39 in the other 3 suits. For each one ...
The third card can be any one of the 26 in the other 2 suits.  For each one ...
The fourth card can be any one of the 13 in the last suit.

Total possible ways to draw them = (52 x 39 x 26 x 13) = 685,464 ways.

But wait !  That's not the answer yet.

Once you have the 4 cards in your hand, you can arrange them
in (4 x 3 x 2 x 1) = 24 different arrangements.  That tells you that
the same hand could have been drawn in 24 different ways.  So
the number of different 4-card hands is only ...

                     (685,464) / (24) = <em>28,561 hands</em>.

I love it !

A team won 9 of its first 12 games. At that rate, how many games will the team win if it plays 64 games in all?
Feliz [49]
9 out of 12 = 9/12 which can be simplified to 3/4.  So the team wins 3/4 of its games.  3/4 of 64 = 64 divided by 4 = 16.  16 x 3 = 48.
