[tex] \displaystyle
|\Omega|=\binom{52}{2}=\dfrac{52!}{2!50!}=\dfrac{51\cdot52}{2}=1326\\
|A|=\binom{4}{2}=\dfrac{4!}{2!2!}=\dfrac{3\cdot4}{2}=6\\\\
P(A)=\dfrac{6}{1326}=\dfrac{1}{221}\approx0.5\% [/tex]

Total number of cards = 52

Total number of queens = 4

[tex] P( \text {Both cards are queen} ) = \dfrac{4}{52} \times \dfrac{3}{51} = \dfrac{1}{221} [/tex]
