Skyla · Answer 1

I took this as drawing them both, so it the ration would then be 2:52 making a percentage of 3.8%

However if it is just one card at a time and I read it wrong, the answer would then be found as a ration 1:52 and have a percentage of 1.9%

Probablity is (desiredoutcoms) / (total possibleoutcomes)

4 aces

4 eights

4+4=8

8/52=2/13
