Depends. How many draws? If you don't draw at all, or if you only draw 1 card, then the probability is zero. If you draw 2, but put the first one back before you draw the second one, that has one answer, but if you don't replace your card, you have a different result. If you draw 52 times without replacement, then the probability is 1. Tell us the whole problem and then maybe we can help.
