उत्तर

Number of ways to drawn 4 cards from a deck of 52 cards = 52C4

∴ n(S) = 52C4

Number of ways to obtain 3 diamonds = 13C3

Number of ways to drawn 1 spade = 13C1

Number of ways to drawn 3 diamonds and one spade = 13C3 × 13C1

Total number of favourable outcomes = 13C3 × 13C1

Hence, the probability of obtaining 3 diamonds and 1 spade = `(""^13C_3 xx ""^13C_1)/(""^52C_4)`
