Answer 2

answer:

p=3!×4/52×3/51×2/50

Step-by-step explanation:

The first 3! is for the order of king, queen, jack. 4/52 is the probability of drawing a king, 4/51 is the probability of drawing a queen after a king is drawn and 4/50 is the probability of drawing a jack once both king and queen are drawn. But the book takes the solution as

p=3!×4/52×3/51×2/50
