The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \( K \) in the probability expression given in the question. The probability is expressed as \( \frac{K}{\binom{52}{4}} \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Problem**: We need to draw 4 specific cards from a deck of 52 cards: one King, one Queen, one Jack, and one Ace. 2. **Total Ways to Choose 4 Cards**: The total number of ways to choose 4 cards from 52 is given by the combination formula: \[ \text{Total ways} = \binom{52}{4} \] 3. **Choosing the Specific Cards**: - There are 4 Kings in the deck, and we need to choose 1. The number of ways to choose 1 King from 4 is: \[ \binom{4}{1} = 4 \] - Similarly, for the Queen, Jack, and Ace, the number of ways to choose each is also: \[ \binom{4}{1} = 4 \quad \text{(for Queen)} \] \[ \binom{4}{1} = 4 \quad \text{(for Jack)} \] \[ \binom{4}{1} = 4 \quad \text{(for Ace)} \] 4. **Total Favorable Outcomes**: Since we need to select one of each card (King, Queen, Jack, Ace), and these selections are independent, we multiply the number of ways to choose each: \[ \text{Favorable outcomes} = \binom{4}{1} \times \binom{4}{1} \times \binom{4}{1} \times \binom{4}{1} = 4 \times 4 \times 4 \times 4 = 4^4 \] 5. **Calculate \( 4^4 \)**: \[ 4^4 = 256 \] 6. **Express Probability**: The probability of drawing one King, one Queen, one Jack, and one Ace is: \[ P(\text{1 King, 1 Queen, 1 Jack, 1 Ace}) = \frac{4^4}{\binom{52}{4}} = \frac{256}{\binom{52}{4}} \] 7. **Identify \( K \)**: From the probability expression, we have: \[ \frac{K}{\binom{52}{4}} = \frac{256}{\binom{52}{4}} \] Hence, \( K = 256 \). ### Final Answer: The value of \( K \) is \( 256 \).
