Solution

Total number of king cards = 4

Ways to select one card from these = 4C1 = 4

Now ways to select 4 cards from the remaining 48 cards = 48C4 = `(48 xx 47 xx 46 xx 45)/(1 xx 2 xx 3 xx 4)`

= 194580

Thus the number of combinations by taking 5 cards out of 52 cards (1 of which is a king)

= 4C1 x 48C4 = 4 x 194580

= 778320
