The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Choose 1 ace.
There are 4 aces in the deck, choose 1: \[ \binom{4}{1} = 4 \]

Step 2: Choose remaining 4 cards.
There are 48 non-ace cards remaining, choose 4: \[ \binom{48}{4} = 194580 \]

Step 3: Total combinations.
Multiply choices of ace and non-aces: \[ 4 \cdot 194580 = 778320 \]

Step 4: Final answer.
\[ \boxed{778320} \]
