In bridge, a standard 52 -card deck is dealt in the usual way to 4 players. By convention, each hand is assigned a number of "points" based on the formula

4×(# A ’s )+3×(# K ’s )+2×(# Q’s )+1×(# J ’s )4 \times(\# \mathrm{~A} \text { 's })+3 \times(\# \mathrm{~K} \text { 's })+2 \times(\# \text { Q's })+1 \times(\# \mathrm{~J} \text { 's })

Given that a particular hand has exactly 4 cards that are A, K, Q, or J, find the probability that its point value is 13 or higher.
