Four cards are drawn from a standard deck of playing cards without replacement. What is the probability that none of them are 9's?
---------------------------------
# of ways to not get 9's = 48C4
# of possible outcomes = 52C4
------------------------------------
P(no 9 in 4 draws) = 194580/270725 = 0.7187..
