Answer:
The total number of combinations is 2595960
P(two hearts) = 0.003 %
P(hearts and diamonds) = 63.73 %
P(4 same rank) = 0.024 %
P(full house) = 0.144 %
P(No same rank) = 50.7 %
Explanation:
How many unique five-card hands can be created from a standard deck of 52 cards?
There are 52 cards to choose from, and we need to pick 5 cards
The number of combinations equals 52C5
The total combinations = 2595960
Now, how many five-card hands contain precisely two hearts?
We have 13 hearts, and we need to select two of them
P(two hearts) = 13C2/52C5
Resulting in: P(two hearts) = 78/2598960
So, P(two hearts) = 0.003 %
What about five-card hands composed solely of hearts and diamonds?
P(hearts and diamonds) = 13C5*13C5/52C5
P(hearts and diamonds) = 1287*1287/2598960
Thus, P(hearts and diamonds) = 1656369/2598960
This gives P(hearts and diamonds) = 63.73 %
How many five-card hands have four cards of the same rank?
P(4 same rank) = 13C1*12C1*4C1/5C2
So we have P(4 same rank) = 13*12*4/2598960
Consequently, P(4 same rank) = 624/2598960
Resulting in P(4 same rank) = 0.024 %
For five-card hands containing a full house, we have
P(full house) = 13C2*2C1*4C3*4C2/5C2
This results in P(full house) = 78*2*4*6/2598960
Thus P(full house) = 3744/2598960
Giving us P(full house) = 0.144 %
Finally, how many hands have no two cards of the same rank?
P(No same rank) = 13C5*4C1*4C1*4C1*4C1*4C1/5C2
Calculating gives P(No same rank) = 1287*4*4*4*4*4/2598960
Hence P(No same rank) = 1317888/2598960
Leading to P(No same rank) = 50.7 %
