Question

It is impossible to get 5 aces when selecting cards from a shuffled deck. Express the indicated degree of likelihood as a probability value between 0 and 1 inclusive. The probability is _____. ​(Type an integer or a​ decimal.)

Answer 1

Answer: P(5A) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four aces in total in a 52 card deck. Therefore the probability of getting 5 aces can be expressed as;

P(5A) = 4/52 × 3/51 × 2/50 × 1/49 × 0/48 = 0

Therefore, it is impossible to get 5 aces from a standard 52 cards deck
