SOLUTION: A poker hand consisting of 8 cards is dealt from a standard deck of 52 cards. Find the probability that the hand contains exactly 2 face cards. Leave your answer as a reduced fr

A standard deck of 52 cards has 12 face cards and 40 cards that are not face cards.


The total number of groups of 8 cards is   = 752538150.  It is the full set of events.


Of them, favorable set consists of groups that have 2 face cards, which we can combine in   = 66 ways,
and 8-2 = 6 non-face cards, which we can combine in   = 3838380 ways.



So, the probability under the question is  P = .


The reduced fraction is  P = .    ANSWER
