    Use combination

    There are 4 queen cards in a deck of 52 cards

    Probability = 4C2 / 52C2

    I calculate 4C2 first

    4C2 = 4! / (2! 2!)

    4C2 = (4 * 3 * 2 * 1) / (2 * 1 * 2 * 1)

    4C2 = 6

    Then I calculate 52C2

    52C2 = 52! / (50! 2!)

    52C2 = (52 * 51) / 2

    52C2 = 1.326

    Hence, the probability is

    Probability = 4C2 / 52C2

    Probability = 6/1,326

    Probability = 1/221
