Assume that the remaining cards have been shuffle. Select 3 cards from the pile of face cards. Show how you derive the sulution. Tell if combination or permutation and why.
Part 1. How many ways are there of selecting one of each face card from the pile?

Select 3 cards from the pile of face cards. Show how you derive the sulution. Tell if combination or permutation and why.
-------------------------
Part 1. How many ways are there of selecting one of each face card from the pile?
# of ways to pick a king: 4C1 = 4
# of ways to pick a queen: 4C1 = 44
# of ways to pick a jack: 4C1 = 4
# of ways to pick one of each face card from the pile: 4*4*4 =64
You are applying the General counting Rule.
-------------------------------
Part 2. How many ways are there of selecting 3 of the same face cards (ie, 3 jacks, 3 queens, 3 kings).
3 jacks: 4C3 = 4
3 queens: 4C3 = 4
3 kings: 4C3 = 4
# of ways to pick 3 kings, 3 queens, 3 jacks: 4*4*4 = 64
