Non Pair to at least a Pair on the Flop

Can someone explain how to compute the odds of improving to AT LEAST a pair on the flop given a non pair pocket.

Thanx!

The odds of pairing at least one of your hole cards are:
1 - (44/50)*(43/49)*(42/48)=32.4%

Thank you much!

Can you do this using Combinations...i.e. C(n,r)?
Thanx again.
