we are calculating probability not permutation.. so how can you say that
there is no need to factorial 3

Question:
From a well shuffled pack of 52 cards, if three cards are drawn in succession  without replacement, what is the probability that the first one is an ace, the second a king and third a jack?
Options:
A) \(\cfrac{1}{5525}\)
B) \(\cfrac{7}{16575}\)
C) \(\cfrac{16}{5525}\)
D) \(\cfrac{8}{16575}\)
E) None of these
Solution:
\(\cfrac{4}{52}\times\cfrac{4}{51}\times\cfrac{4}{50}=\cfrac{8}{16575}\)
