Q2. Count the number of seven-card hands that can be drawn from a standard deck such that the hand contains at most three face cards OR contains at least six face cards. (Face cards are J, Q, K.)
Permutations and Combinations
If there are 5 dishes, they can be relished in any order at a time. In permutation, it should be in a particular order. In combination, the order does not matter. Take 3 letters a, b, and c. The possible ways of pairing any two letters are ab, bc, ac, ba, cb and ca. It is in a particular order. So, this can be called the permutation of a, b, and c. But if the order does not matter then ab is the same as ba. Similarly, bc is the same as cb and ac is the same as ca. Here the list has ab, bc, and ac alone. This can be called the combination of a, b, and c.
Counting Theory
The fundamental counting principle is a rule that is used to count the total number of possible outcomes in a given situation.
How do you solve this? (a standard deck of cards has 52 cards in total with 13 ranks - A, 2, 3, ..., 10, Jack, Queen, King - and 4 suits - hearts, diamonds, clubs, spades)
