Answer:
4/52 x 1/51 x 2 : 3/50 x 1/49 x 2 : 2/48 x 1/47 x 2 : 1/46 x 1/45 x 2
So 4x1x2/52x51 x 3x1x2/50 x 49 x 2x1x2/48 x 47 x 1x1x2/46 x 45
= 4 points
The same as:-
8/2652 x 6/2450 x 4/2256 x 2/2070 = Max 4 points.
And then:-
2/663 x 3/1225 x 1/564 x 1/1035, reduces to
1/221x1225x282x1035 = Max 4 points
Ans = 1in 8,223,437,250 = 2 points.
+2 points for putting “Any Thing to paper” that looks like some sort of maths effort.
