Given that,

The different types of cards are 26 red cards, 18 black cards, and 8 face cards.

The total number of cards is 52 cards.

The number of red cards = 26.

The number of black cards  = 18.

The number of face cards = 8.

The formula to find the number of ways of selection is given by,

\begin{aligned} &N=(p+1) \times(q+1) \times(r+1)-1\\ &N=(26+1) \times(18+1) \times(8+1)-1\\ &N=(27 \times 19 \times 9)-1\\ &N=4617-1\\ &N=4616 \end{aligned}

Therefore, the number of ways of arranging the rings is 4616 ways.
