Best answer
a) 50 (the first 48 are all non-aces, the last two has to be aces)
b) 50 for the two aces (from above); for 2 of 13 kinds you need 5 (4 of 1 kind, 1 of second kind); so you need the bigger number which is 50
c) 14 (13 card which is one of each kind, 14th card has to match one of the 13 kinds)
d) 17 (13 card which is one of each kind, 3 more of one kind for a total of 4 cards of one kind, 1 more of any kind)
