Ok so two guys have a deck of 52 shuffled cards. They both deal the top card at the same time. What are the odds that they will both deal an ace of clubs?

  1. P(52)^2 to 1 chances


  2. 2704

    52*52

  3. The chances of drawing a random pair the same should be 1/52, that is, you draw from one deck, the chance that the card in the other deck will be the same is 1/52.

    but for a specific card like the ace of clubs, the chance of drawing it from the first deck is 1/52, and the chance from the second deck, also 1/52, then you just multiply these together, and you get 1/(52x52) or 1/2704.

  4. not much
