A standard deck of cards contains 4 suits (Hearts, Diamonds, Spades, and Clubs) each containing 13 ranks (Ace, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Jack, Queen, King) for a total of 52 cards. In a typical game of Texas Hold'em, you are dealt two cards. Find the probability that your cards are the same rank (i.e. two Aces or two 4s). Hint: find the probability of a particular pair, then multiply by how many different pairs are possible.
