What is the probability of being dealt a blackjack when using a standard deck of 52 cards?

We calculate first all combinations of 52 elements taken 2 at a time: C(52, 2) = (52 * 51) / 2 = 1326. We combine now each of the 4 Aces with each of the 16 ten-valued cards: 4 * 16 = 64. The probability to get a blackjack (natural): 64 / 1326 = . 0483 = 4.83%.
