Re: Bill has a small deck of 12 playing cards

I solved this question as follows and I know I am wrong. The problem is: I don't know why am I wrong?

First card can be picked in 12C1 ways
Second card can be picked in 10C1 ways
Third card can be picked in 8C1 ways
Fourth card can be picked in 6C1 ways
All possibilities to pick 4 cards out of 12 = 12C4

Probability to have atleast one pair = 1 - prob to have no pairs = 1 - 12c1*10c1*8c1*6c1/12c4

Could somebody point out the error in this solution and why?
