1) We are creating a new card game with a new deck.
Unlike the normal deck that has 13 ranks (Ace through King) and 4
Suits (hearts, diamonds, spades, and clubs), our deck will be made
up of the following.
Each card will have:
i) One rank from 1 to 16.
ii) One of 5 different suits.
Hence, there are 80 cards in the deck with 16 ranks for each of the
5 different suits, and none of the cards will be face cards! So, a
card rank 11 would just have an 11 on it. Hence, there is no
discussion of "royal" anything since there won't be any cards that
are "royalty" like King or Queen, and no face cards!
The game is played by dealing each player 5 cards from the deck.
Our goal is to determine which hands would beat other hands using
probability. Obviously the hands that are harder to get (i.e. are
more rare) should beat hands that are easier to get.
a) How many different ways are there to get any 5 card
hand?
The number of ways of getting any 5 card hand is
DO NOT USE ANY COMMAS
b)How many different ways are there to get exactly 1 pair
(i.e. 2 cards with the same rank)?
The number of ways of getting exactly 1 pair is
DO NOT USE ANY COMMAS
What is the probability of being dealt exactly 1
pair?
Round your answer to 7 decimal places.
c) How many different ways are there to get exactly 2 pair
(i.e. 2 different sets of 2 cards with the same rank)?
The number of ways of getting exactly 2 pair is
DO NOT USE ANY COMMAS
What is the probability of being dealt exactly 2
pair?
Round your answer to 7 decimal places.
d) How many different ways are there to get exactly 3 of a
kind (i.e. 3 cards with the same rank)?
The number of ways of getting exactly 3 of a kind is
DO NOT USE ANY COMMAS
What is the probability of being dealt exactly 3 of a
kind?
Round your answer to 7 decimal places.
e) How many different ways are there to get exactly 4 of a
kind (i.e. 4 cards with the same rank)?
The number of ways of getting exactly 4 of a kind is
DO NOT USE ANY COMMAS
What is the probability of being dealt exactly 4 of a
kind?
Round your answer to 7 decimal places.
f) How many different ways are there to get exactly 5 of a
kind (i.e. 5 cards with the same rank)?
The number of ways of getting exactly 5 of a kind is
DO NOT USE ANY COMMAS
