Welcome to MSE. Note that the $16$th to $18$th cards drawn will not have any effect on your answer, so is there any particular meaning or significance to using $18$ as opposed to just $15$ or even all $52$ cards?

@ Ben W: you want the probability of obtaining exactly one king by the 14th draw. Right? Because if you’re calculating the probability of at least one king by the 14th draw, then you will be including the probability that you have chosen all 4 kings by the 14th draw.

Welcome to math.stackexchange. Your experience will be much improved (and your chances of getting helpful answers increased) if instead of just posting the question without any indication of what you know, what context the problem arose in, and what your confusion or difficulties are, you include that information. Otherwise, it looks like you are assigning homework or tasks to the readership, instead of asking for help (which, presumably, is what you are doing). By adding context, you ensure the answers will be at an appropriate level and address the issues you care about.
