Five cards are drawn from a well-shuffled pack of 52 cards. Find the probability that all the five cards are hearts.

Out of 52 cards from a deck, 5 cards can be drawn in 52C5 ways.
∴ Total number of elementary events = 52C5
Out of 13 cards of heart, 5 cards can be drawn in 13C5 ways.
∴ Favourable number of events = 13C5
Hence, required probability = C513C552=13×12×11×10×952×51×50×49×48=3366640
