Question 256337: "If you are dealt 5 cards in a game of draw poker, and 3 of them are 5's what is the probability you will get another 5 if you draw 2 cards?"

You can put this solution on YOUR website! 52-5=47
(46C1*1C1)/47C2 combination of drawing 1 of 46 cards * one 5 divided by combination of 47 cards taken 2 at a time.
