You can put this solution on YOUR website! small...lol...there are 13 clubs all together so the chance with one draw of drawing a club is 13/52.....if you draw a 2nd card the chances are
:
13/52(12/51)
:
if you draw 3 the chances
are
13/52(12/51)(11/50) are you getting the pattern.....reduce the numerator and denominator by one and keep multiplying until you get to 7 draws the reason is you are assuming a club is being drawn each time so the amount of clubs gets reduced by one each draw....but the deck of cards also gets reduced by one one on each draw.
:
answer: 13/52(12/51)(11/50)(10/49)(9/48)(8/47)(7/46) all multiplied together
