<PRE><B>Question 469226</B>
There are 4 aces and 4 sevens=4*4=16
Remember that we are looking for combinations not permutations. The order in which
the cards are dealt is not important.
There are 16 possible combinations of A,7.
Another 16 for 6,2 and 16 for 3,5
16*3=48
4C2=6 a special case for 4,4
.
48+6=54
You were close.
