the number of different 3 card hands from a deck of 32 cards is ___ 32C3\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the number of different hands containing 2 fours is ___ (4C2)*28\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the number of different hands containing 3 fours is ___ (4C3)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the probability of at least 2 fours ___ {[(4C2)*28] + 4C3} / 32C3\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "for a hand of no matching cards
\n" ); document.write( "___ possibilities for 1st card ___ 32
\n" ); document.write( "___ possibilities for 2nd card ___ 28
\n" ); document.write( "___ possibilities for 3rd card ___ 24
\n" ); document.write( "___ since order does NOT count, the product is divided by 3!\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "probability of no matching cards ___ [(32*28*24) / 3!] / 32C3
\n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
