based on what u said, 1/52 x 1/26 is not 1/1326.

That is, if actually B is right. I just talked based on what u claimed is ur workings

Since there are two black ace card in a desk of cards,picking 1 wil give us 2/56=1/26...picking the second one will give us 1/51 since we av already picked 1 without replacing it..therefore 1/26*1/51=1/1326

For the first card picked you have 2 black aces to choose from the 52 cards so the probability is:

2/52=1/26

For the next card you have 1 black ace to choose from 51 cards since you already picked the other one, so the probability is:

1/51


Now just multiply:

1/26*1/51=1/1326


Which is option B
