    During the first draw, Jacob has 4 out of 52 chances of drawing a King since there are 4 Kings and 52 cards in total. However on the second draw, Jacob will only have 3 out of 51 chances of drawing a King since he won't place the first card back.

    The equation will be:

    X = (4/52) * (3/51), where X is the probability that both cards are Kings

    X = 1/221

    The answer would be C. 1/221
