By the way thanks for your assistance with these questions. If I have any more problems, I was hoping that maybe you could help me through it......It is really really appreciated.
Thanks again

Like I said, that's really a trick question then. 220 is the total combinations for Jon to get three cards and Ryan to get nine cards. But since Jon could get nine and Ryan three instead, there are actually twice as many possibilities, so it's 440. I wouldn't expect anything that deceptive on your real exam.
