Aaron, why do u divide 2*48*47 by 2. I know that it is the right answer, I just can't figure out why you divide it.

Because 48*47 counts each pair of cards twice. For example, As2c and 2cAs are the same two cards. When we count the total flops as 19,600, this counts each combination of 3 cards only once, so we must do the same in the numerator.
